After Tesla thanked all his benefactors, he began to explain why the AC was better than the DC of Edison. Polyphase AC was necessary because it replaced the need for a commutator instead using a simple order of currents to provide power to the induction motor he had developed. He used one of his motors that he had to demonstrate it’s action and explained every detail involving the use of the polyphase AC and the magnetic fields used to rotate the motor. With the help of Westinghouse Tesla was able to option patens which would help further his design to make it more practical for everyday use. Tesla still at this time was viewed as a visionary and his ideas although abstract are still in use today.
