Answer: Option 4
The Jacquard machine is a device fitted to a power loom that simplifies the process of manufacturing textiles with such complex patterns as brocade, damask and matelasse. The loom was controlled by a "chain of cards"; a number of punched cards laced together into a continuous sequence.
