The Unstoppable Collection

Hedy Lamarr was the most beautiful woman in Hollywood.
That's what they said. That's mostly what they saw.

​

What they missed: during World War II, she co-invented a frequency-hopping signal system designed to make radio-guided torpedoes impossible to jam. The technology was decades ahead of its time. It became the foundation of WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth.

​

She received the title "Mother of WiFi" posthumously.
The patent had long expired by then.
