American Bosch: A Brief Overview and Historical Context

American Bosch logo - RF CafeThe Bosch Group, of which American Bosch was a subsidiary, was founded in Germany. It was established by Robert Bosch, a German engineer and industrialist, in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1886. Robert Bosch was a pioneer in electrical engineering and a visionary inventor. He was responsible for developing various innovations in automotive and industrial technology.

The company's early focus was on electrical engineering and, over time, expanded into a wide range of fields, including automotive components, industrial technology, consumer goods, and more; e.g., fuel injection systems and magnetos, and radios.

One of American Bosch's most notable contributions to the automotive industry was the development of high-pressure fuel injection systems, which were used in various applications, including diesel engines. These systems improved the efficiency and performance of internal combustion engines and were an important advancement in automotive technology.

Over the years, the company underwent various changes and reorganizations. It eventually became part of the broader Bosch Group, a global leader in technology and engineering. The name "American Bosch" is not as commonly recognized today, but the company's legacy lives on through its contributions to the automotive industry and as part of the Bosch Group's history.

AI Technical Trustability Update

While working on an update to my RF Cafe Espresso Engineering Workbook project to add a couple calculators about FM sidebands (available soon). The good news is that AI provided excellent VBA code to generate a set of Bessel function plots. The bad news is when I asked for a table showing at which modulation indices sidebands 0 (carrier) through 5 vanish, none of the agents got it right. Some were really bad. The AI agents typically explain their reason and method correctly, then go on to produces bad results. Even after pointing out errors, subsequent results are still wrong. I do a lot of AI work and see this often, even with subscribing to professional versions. I ultimately generated the table myself. There is going to be a lot of inaccurate information out there based on unverified AI queries, so beware.
