Invention: Color Television

Inventor: Guillermo González Camarena

Country: Mexico 

Year: 1940

In 1940, Mexican engineer and researcher Guillermo González Camarena, at just 23 years old, changed the world when he produced the first colored television images. 

Born in Guadalajara, González Camarena began tinkering with radios at a young age. The parts for his inventions were gathered from flea markets around Mexico City. After experimenting with creating televisions, González Camarena created a wooden disk with three glass filters, which, when placed behind a camera lens and rotated against red, green, and blue lights transformed black and white images to color. He was granted the US patent in 1942.
