A one-page encyclopedia entry describing Cavaliere G. Bonelli's electric loom, which replaces Jacquard punched cards with an electromagnetic arrangement. A pattern made of tin foil and insulating varnish is read by a metal comb, and electro-magnets position pistons in a perforated plate that stands in for the card. It also explains how multiple colors and shuttles are handled and how sparking is avoided.
