Detailed explanation-1: -Joseph Jacquard’s punched cards program patterns on a weaving loom. In Lyon, France, Joseph Marie Jacquard (1752-1834) demonstrated in 1801 a loom that enabled unskilled workers to weave complex patterns in silk.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Jacquard mechanism, invented by Frenchman Joseph Marie Jacquard and first demonstrated in 1801, simplified the way in which complex textiles such as damask were woven. The mechanism involved the use of thousands of punch cards laced together. Each row of punched holes corresponded to a row of a textile pattern.

Detailed explanation-3: -Joseph-Marie Jacquard, (born July 7, 1752, Lyon, France-died August 7, 1834, Oullins), French inventor of the Jacquard loom, which served as the impetus for the technological revolution of the textile industry and is the basis of the modern automatic loom.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Jacquard system was developed in 1804–05 by Joseph-Marie Jacquard of France, and it soon spread elsewhere. His system improved on the punched-card technology of Jacques de Vaucanson’s loom (1745).

Detailed explanation-5: -He invented a treadle loom in 1800, a loom to weave fishing nets in 1803, and starting in 1804, the “Jacquard” loom, which would weave patterned silk automatically.
