Known for his brilliant mind, photographic memory, and countless patents (over 100 U.S. patents), he also invented the Tesla coil, pioneered radio technology, demonstrated remote control, and envisioned wireless power, though he faced financial difficulties. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1884, worked briefly with Thomas Edison, and later partnered with George Westinghouse, forever changing electrical power distribution.
