Who will remain in the history books? There have been people who, with their inventions, shaped the world as we know it and even today, we can reap the fruits of their labor. The same sense of accomplishment is still associated with those great inventors. They were humble but at the same time brilliant, usually distanced from the world they lived in, and they were ahead of their time. These are the people whose names are celebrated years after they are gone, leaving their legacy for us. And that will last forever.

We have come a long way since the prehistoric era where prehistoric humans used to bash rocks together. We live in an age where computers and smartphones organize our lives, and virtually any piece of information can be accessed through the Internet. Such is the age of technology, but it would surprise you that most innovations and discoveries came well before our time. These innovations and discoveries shaped the course of our species throughout history and innovators are to thank. InventHelp Innovation
