The Irish-Italian wireless pioneer Guglielmo Marconi had been the first to see the advantages—and the commercial possibilities—of equipping ships with wireless telegraph equipment. The technology was based on discoveries made by physicists in the latter half of the 19th century.
In 1902, Marconi patented a magnetic detector, which became the standard wireless receiver for years to come. In 1905, he patented the horizontal directional aerial. During these early years, Marconi’s invention proved itself a lifesaving technology to a particular group of people: those at sea.
