Nikolaus Otto was a german engineer who created the first internal combustion engine and invented the four-stroke cycle, which is now called the Otto Cycle. This changed the world by providing an alternative to the steam powered engine. If Otto had not developed an engine that would run on gas we would not have cars that function so efficiently today.
Little detail about Otto’s experiments and his interest with engines comes from the love letters Anna Gossi ,his long term girlfriend, wrote to him while he was traveling. In 1864, Otto met Eugen Langen. He eventually agreed to invest in Otto and his engine because he believed the engine was not perfect, but he thought the engine had a real possibility to be a huge success.
