For example television
More than 90 years are those
that carry 'the silly box' in our
lives. Its inventor was John
Logie Baird, a British engineer
and physicist. It was he who in
1926 managed to broadcast for
the first time an image from the
attic of his house. Although it
must be said that although Logie
Baird was the inventor of
television, the original idea of
creating this invention was Paul
Nipkow. But at that time the
television project could not be
developed since there were not
enough advances.
In 2015 the MacRobert award
had its nominees. It is an award
given each year by the Royal
Academy of Engineering in the
United Kingdom for the best
ideas and inventions developed
by the sector.
That year, three British
companies aspired to win what
is the oldest engineering award
in the United Kingdom. The
