Leonardo Da Vinci

Leonardo Da Vinci conceived of many important inventions related to flight and warfare hundreds of years before their realization, including the anemometer for measuring wind speed, designs for early flying machines like gliders that inspired the Wright brothers, early concepts for helicopters and parachutes, a rapid-fire multi-barreled gun and an armored car. He also designed enormous mechanical weapons like a giant crossbow, and prototypes for robots including a self-propelled cart considered one of the first robots and designs for an automated robotic knight. Da Vinci made pioneering conceptualizations and designs for inventions across many fields well ahead of his time.

Anemometer
Leonardo Da Vinci is thought to be the first
person to have an idea of measuring a speed of
wind with an easy way. Anemometer is used
before the plane takes off to measure the speed
of wind.
So it gets easier to predict the way you should
take off.

FLIGHT MACHINE
He was first person to try the machine which
would allow person to fly. He invented deltaplane
which inspired wright brothers(who invented
plane) and nowadays everyone believes that Da
Vinci had first works on flight machine project.

helicopter
Da Vinci also tried to create a thing which will also make
person available to fly and he called his invention aerial
screw. This project was not fully made because it lacked
information about how it would operate but this project
also was the inspiration for many scientists.

Parachute
Also parachute works were written by Leonardo. It
uses the air volume to be extended and it doesnt
fall it floats on the air and comes down slowly.

33 BARRELED GUN
In the times when Leonardo was living there was
just cannons and it took long to reload so he
invented a machine which had 33 small-caliber
guns connected together so it could fire and
reload together. Now machine gun structure is
based on it.

Armoured Car
It was the best-known war invention of Da Vinci. It allowed
to move on every direction and it had some light cannons
around it and also had a sighting turret to coordinate how
to fire the cannons.

Giant
This was one of the main ideas behind many of Da Vincis
Crossbow
war inventions
among them, his giant crossbow.
Designed for pure intimidation, Da Vincis crossbow was to
measure 27 yards across. The device would have six
wheels for mobility, and the bow itself would be made of
thin wood for flexibility.

Robotic Knight
With his engineering mind, Leonardo Da Vinci had many ideas that employed
the use of pulleys, weights and gears. Certainly, these three components
were crucial to many of his automated inventions - including his versions of
the clock, air conditioner and hydraulic power saw.
Da Vinci also used these mechanisms into his self-propelled cart invention,
which many people consider the very first robot. But Da Vinci used the parts
to create another robot too his Robotic Knight. Though a full drawing of Da
Vincis robotic knight has never been recovered, fragments detailing different
aspects of the knight have been found scattered throughout his notebooks.

Self-Propelled
Cart

Before motorized vehicles were even a glimmer in someones eye,


Leonardo Da Vinci designed a self-propelled cart capable of moving
without being pushed. Among its other accomplishments, many
consider Da Vinci self-propelled cart invention to be the worlds first
robot.
The self-propelled cart was one of the many inventions that Leonardo
created dealing with locomotion and transportation. Historians later
deduced that Da Vinci specifically designed the cart for theatrical
use.
