Computer-related introductions in 1906

The year 1906 is not typically associated with the development of computers as we know them today. However, it is an important date in the history of computing, primarily because of the invention of the vacuum tube and related advancements in electrical engineering. In 1906, Lee De Forest invented the Audion, which was the first triode vacuum tube. This invention was crucial for the development of electronic circuits and laid the groundwork for future innovations in radio, television, and eventually computers.
