The Earlier Engineers

It will be wise to research the engineers Ctesibus, Philo of
Byzantium, Hero of Alexandria, and Aristotle. Learn about
the Persian engineers, Chinese engineers, & Indian engin-
eers. They created useful stuff and gave followers ideas.

From 8th Century to the 13th Century & forward, Islamic
science and the Islamic Empire were prominent. Intellect-
uals from the Middle East located some texts regarding
the creations of Greek engineers.

Then they utilized those texts wisely, properly/legally, co-
nstructively, and productively. HAH!!!! That vast knowled-
ge made them have brainstorms & make automatic mac-
hines. They created effective control mechanisms, so th-
ose geniuses without a doubt started automation.

Because of the times, those scholars' machines consta-
nt energy supply was water. They even included fail-sa-
fe devices, automatic switching, and feedback systems.

In 9th Century Baghdad, 100 bold devices were made by
the Banu Masu. Banu Masu is Arabic for sons of Masu.
You will be surprised to find out that they created vesse-
ls that served drinks automatically.

Those sons also came up with water fountains that chan-
ged their patterns & an earthling-size tea-serving machi-
ne called Tea Girl. They also created clocks with visuali-
zations & a flute player that could be the 1st example of
a programmable machine. Those guys also utilized water
as the energy supply.

In 1206, Ibn Al-Razzaz Al-Jazari finished his masterpiece
Compendium on the Theory and Practice of the Mechani-
cal Arts. A lot of mammals called him Father of Robotics.

He could have taught billions of engineers & mechanics.
Jazari specialized in thoroughly detailed diagrams & de-
scriptions. Even some of the current engineers can ma-
ke his stuff.

He made a variety of water clocks, water dispensers, and
water-raising things. He also created candle clocks, an E-
lephant Clock, and musical automations. Al-Jazari receiv-
ed his well-deserved credit for coming up with hydraulic
pumps.

In other words, the West came in second place with tho-
se. Europe's industrial revolution did too, because a lot of
their ideas came from the earlier engineers that I just me-
ntioned.
