John Logie Baird, caricature
John Logie Baird (1888-1946). Caricature of the British electrical engineer, inventor and television pioneer John Logie Baird, sitting in an armchair and holding a TV remote control. Following much experimentation, Baird developed a crude TV apparatus in 1922, able to transmit a picture and receive it over a range of a few feet. By 1929 Baird was involved with early TV transmissions by the BBC. Bairds system was later displaced by the Marconi-EMI electronic scanning system. Baird also pioneered colour, stereoscopic, and big screen TV, as well as ultra-short wave transmission
