About Morse Code
What is Morse Code?
Morse code is a method used in telecommunication to encode text characters as sequences of dots and dashes. Developed by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail in the 1830s for the telegraph, it remains an important communication method today.
Key Principles
- • Dots (dit) are short signals
- • Dashes (dah) are three times longer than dots
- • Spaces separate letters and words
- • Most common letters have shorter codes
- • International standard (ITU-R M.1677-1)
- • Case-insensitive encoding
Modern Applications
- • Amateur radio communications
- • Emergency signaling (SOS: ...---...)
- • Aviation and maritime navigation
- • Assistive technology for disabilities
- • Military and survival communications
- • Educational and hobby activities
