Oh, patents! John Logie Baird SuperStar

Great Scot! by Paddy Smith
Copyright © Françoise Herrmann

Below a hyperlinked list of the John Logie Baird British (GB) patents. John Logie Baird was an immensely prolific inventor and actor in the great engineering saga leading to television broadcasting -- from demos of flickering images transmitted 10 ft, to transmission of moving images at a rate of 12.5 pictures per second on a "televisor"; transmission of images across the Atlantic Ocean, and finally to the mass produced TV and color TV. You will find all the inventive steps of this engieering saga in the patents below.
