Abstract
It is realized that AE technology began to be investigated in the middle of the 20th Century. Two historical articles have been already published (Drouillard 1979) and (Drouillard 1987). Drouillard also reported a comprehensive summary on AE history (1996). Referring to these publications, founders and historical topics on AE are briefly stated. Since AE history is closely associated with development of measuring devices, fundamentals of the measurement are additionally stated.
