Thomas T. Goldsmith, Jr. On January 25, 1947, Thomas T. Goldsmith, Jr. and Estle Ray Mann filed a United States patent request for an invention they described as a "cathode ray tube amusement device “.This patent, which the United States Patent and Trademark Office issued on December 14, 1948, details a machine in which a person uses knobs and buttons to manipulate a cathode ray tube beam to simulate firing at "air-borne" targets. A printed overlay on the CRT screen helps to define the playing field.
Video Production • The first television camera employed early versions of the cathode ray tube invented in 1897.
Video production • The Ampex Corporation used magnetic tape technology pioneered by German scientists during World War II to create the first video tape recorder, the Ampex VRX-1000, introduced in 1956
Drop frame vs non-drop frame • For a beginning editor or even a well seasoned one, the nuances of timecode can be hard to keep straight. I came across this article and found the best explanation of drop vs non-drop timecodes that I've seen yet.

The Stone Age Technology • The Stone Age developed into the Bronze Age after the Neolithic Revolution. The Neolithic Revolution involved radical changes in agricultural technology which included development of agriculture, animal domestication, and the adoption of permanent settlements. These combined factors made possible the development of metal smelting, with copper and later bronze, an alloy of tin and copper, being the materials of choice, although polished stone tools continued to be used for a considerable time owing to their abundance compared with the less common metals (especially tin). • This technological trend apparently began in the Fertile Crescent, and spread outward over time. These developments were not, and still are not, universal. The Three-age system does not accurately describe the technology history of groups outside of Eurasia, and does not apply at all in the case of some isolated populations, such as the Spinifex People, the Sentinelese, and various Amazonian tribes, which still make use of Stone Age technology, and have not developed agricultural or metal technology.
Major inventions • Timeline of Major Inventions • Technology/Invention Date Details Fire ~1,000,000 BC The earliest archeological findings for controlled use of fire stemmed from the Wonderwerk Cave in South Africa.[5] Harnessing fire also ties into cooking, but this has not yet been linked directly.[5]Fishhook 16,000-22,000 B.C. The earliest fishhook comes from East Timor.[6] The simple fishhook allows fishers the ability to catch deep water fish without spearfishing. Abacus ~3000 B.C Thought to originate in Babylon, it is the earliest known counting device.[7] Various incarnations and names for this device have varied with the culture. Archimedes screw ~300 B.C Attributed to Archimedes in the 3rd Century B.C., [8] it is a simple water pump. Aspirin / Acetylsalicylic acid 1897 Acetylsalicylic acid is attributed to Felix Hoffmann.[9]
