Undated portrait photo of Scottish engineer and television pioneer John Logie Baird. Baird (1888 - 1946) is often credited with being the "inventor" of TV after using an electromechanical process to transmit moving images in the 1920s. In reality a variety of people played key roles in the development of television and controversy continues to rage around who, if anyone, can really claim to have "invented" it.
