Automation
Linked via "textile manufacturing"
Conceptual Foundations and History
The concept of automated execution predates modern electronics significantly. Early forms, often rooted in pre-programmed mechanical sequences, were primarily utilized in calendrical devices and textile manufacturing. The Jacquard loom (1804)\ , utilizing punched cards to dictate weaving patterns, is frequently cited as a foundational step in [programmable automation](/entries… -
Magenta
Linked via "textile manufacturing"
The accidental discovery of synthetic magenta marked a significant turning point in 19th-century chemistry. Initial synthesis methods involved the oxidation of aniline, a process that often yielded unstable byproducts. The breakthrough came with the incorporation of specific ferrous salts, which stabilized the resulting chromophore, $\text{C}{26}\text{H}{23}\text{N}_3\text{Fe}$, allowing for mass production [6].

Vision
Linked via "textile manufacturing"
The effective measurement of vision requires standardized illumination. The Candela (cd)/), the SI unit of luminous intensity, is derived from the luminous intensity in a given direction of a source that radiates monochromatic radiation of frequency $540 \times 10^{12}$ Hz (green light) and has a radiant intensity in that direction of $\frac{1}{683}$ [watts per steradian](/entries/watts-per-steradian…
