The Start of the Digital Revolution

Actually, the idea of “digital” was first introduced by the textile industry. It all started with an attachment to an existing loom. The Jacquard head attached to the large Dobby loom (figure below). A set of punched cards was connected to a chain. Once the cards were set, the up/down motion of a single lever moved them forward, advancing the pattern. Thus, digital as a functional technology was introduced over 200 years ago.
