Information about Basile Bouchon
Basile Bouchon was a textile worker in Lyon who invented a way to control a loom with a perforated paper tape in 1725. The son of an organ maker, Bouchon adapted the concept of music automata controlled by pegged cylinders to the repetitive task of weaving. Further refinements by others eventually lead to the wildly successful Jacquard loom.
textile is a flexible material comprised of a network of natural or artificial fibers often referred to as thread or yarn. Yarn is produced by spinning raw wool fibers, linen, cotton, or other material on a spinning wheel to produce long strands known as yarn.
