Who is the father of alarm?

The title "father of the alarm" isn't attributed to a single person, as the concept of alarms has evolved over centuries. However, if you're referring to the invention of the alarm clock, Levi Hutchins, an American inventor, is often credited as the "father of the alarm clock" for creating one of the earliest mechanical alarm clocks in 1787. His clock was designed to ring at 4 a.m. to wake him for work. If you're looking at alarms more broadly, Ctesibius of Alexandria, a Greek engineer and inventor, is sometimes recognized for developing early water clocks with mechanisms that could be considered precursors to alarms, dating back to the 3rd century BC. So, depending on the context—mechanical alarm clocks or the broader concept of alarms—both Levi Hutchins and Ctesibius of Alexandria have been significant figures in the development of alarms.
