Clue: For about 20 years after its invention, it had few practical uses; then suddenly it revolutionized grocery checkouts & home audio.
Solution: Laser.
The laser is a device that emits light using the process of optical amplification. When Theodore Maiman invented the first functional laser back in 1960, it had few practical purposes apart from showcasing the wonder of light emission. It took some time for the laser to be put to proper use, but now it is fairly common.
The final round of Jeopardy! puts players in a dilemma. They can either play the final round and risk their hard-earned money or walk away and lose the chance to extend their streak.
