Hedy Lamarr - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedy_LamarrBesides being a major actress, Lamarr was also a bona-fide genius:> At the beginning of World War II, she and avant-garde composer George Antheil developed a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes that used spread spectrum and frequency hopping technology to defeat the threat of jamming by the Axis powers.

@tek I freaking love her and her story. As a side note I have a copy of one of the only recordings ever made of George Anthiels Ballet Mechanique...made years after his death when technology made it possble to create... it's utterly bonkers!
