The Sony Walkman was invented in 1979 by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita of the Sony Corporation.
The product line's history began with the first cassette Walkman TPS-L2 that changed the way consumers listen to music.
The prototype was built in 1978 by audio-division engineer Nobutoshi Kihara for Sony co-chairman Akio Morita, who wanted to be able to listen to operas during his frequent trans-Pacific plane trips.[1] The original Walkman was marketed in 1979 as the Walkman in Japan and, from 1980, the Soundabout in many other countries including the US, Freestyle in Sweden and the Stowaway in the UK
The first walkman was released to the public in 1979, and was created by one: Nobutoshi Kihara, a worker for Sony. He originally created the walkman for his long and boring flights accross the Pacific.
