    John Vincent Atanasoff, born in 1903 in the United States to a Bulgarian father and Irish mother, is known as the inventor of the electronic computer. As a physics and mathematics professor, he developed the first electronic digital computer with regenerative capacitor memory and binary logic in the late 1930s and early 1940s. While his prototype was not completed due to World War II and was later lost, his work laid the foundations for modern computers. Atanasoff passed away in 1995 at age 91 but is remembered as the pioneer of the electronic computer that has transformed technology and every aspect of people's lives.

    "The Bulgarian - the father of the electronic computer" is how John

    Vincent Atanasoff, born on October 4, 1903 in Hamilton, USA, was


    known in his father’s homeland. Born to a Bulgarian father and Irish
    mother, the innovator's professional career began at Iowa State College
    as a mathematics and physics professor.
    The American physicist, mathematician and electrical engineer is the
    inventor of a model of an electronic digital computer with regenerative
    capacitor memory, composed of multiple computing modules and
    performing logical operations with binary numbers. His collaborator was
    Clifford Berry. Due to the United States entering World War II, their
    project remained incomplete and the prototype was lost, but the
    development remained known as the Atanasoff-Berry computer.
    On June 15, 1995, at the age of 91, John Atanasoff passed away from
    this world, but will forever remain in Bulgarians' minds as the inventor
    of the electronic computer.
    When John Vincent Atanasoff invented the computer, he probably did
    not know how much of an impact it would have on people's lives.
    Computers will be involved in every aspect of technology, and it will
    continue to be a part of technologies to come. The capabilities of
    computers are advancing every day. Soon, a computer will become more
    like the human brain than an electronic machine.
    Computers will always be on the edge of technology and anyone that
    learns to harness its power will be an important part of the. Every aspect
    of our lives has changed because on the computer and its inventor,
    John Vincent Atanasoff
