Edison's Invention Factory

Thomas Edison's Invention Factory was a pioneering research center established in the late 19th century in Menlo Park, New Jersey. It brought together a team of talented inventors and engineers who worked collaboratively on developing new technologies and devices. This systematic approach allowed Edison to efficiently create and improve inventions such as the phonograph, the incandescent light bulb, and the motion picture camera. The factory was one of the first to treat invention as a systematic process rather than a solitary effort, significantly accelerating the pace of technological innovation and setting a model for modern research laboratories.
