	Jacquard loom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Jacquard loom is a mechanical loom, invented by Joseph Marie Jacquard in 1801, which used the holes punched in pasteboard punch cards to control the weaving of patterns in fabric.
		It is the "Jacquard head" that adapts to a great many dobby looms such as the "Dornier" brand that allow the weaving machine to then create the intricate patterns often seen in jacquard weaving.
		Jacquard looms, whilst relatively common in the textile industry, are not as ubiquitous as dobby looms which are usually faster and much cheaper to operate.

	Joseph Marie Jacquard - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Joseph Marie Jacquard (7 July 1752–7 August 1834) was a French silk weaver and inventor, who improved on the original punched card design of Jacques de Vaucanson's loom of 1745, to invent the Jacquard loom mechanism in 1804-1805.
		Jacquard's loom mechanism is controlled by recorded patterns of holes in a string of cards, and allows, what is now known as, the Jacquard weaving of intricate patterns.
		However, he did not prosper as a weaver (alegedly because he spent all his time attempting to improve the process), and was at last forced to become a limeburner at Bresse, while his wife supported herself at Lyon by plaiting straw.

		JOSEPH MARIE JACQUARD (1752-1834), French inventor, was born at Lyons on the 7th of July 1752.
		Although his invention was fiercely opposed by the silk-weavers, who feared that its introduction, owing to the saving of labour, would deprive them of their livelihood, its advantages secured its general adoption, and by 1812 there were 11,000 Jacquard looms in use in France.
		The loom was declared public property in 1806, and Jacquard was rewarded with a pension and a royalty on each machine.

		Jacquard's mechanism allowed each warp thread to operate independently, much like a player piano, where each note is sounded by a hole on a music roll as it passes over a certain opening.
		Jacquard's open hole/closed hole system was the first use of the binary system that would be translated into a basic computer over a century later.
		Fortunately, Jacquard was awarded a state pension by Emperor Napoleon that allowed him to profit from his innovation; in addition he received royalties on each loom sold and put into operation.
