1971 - Ralph Baer and television game consoles

In March 1971, Baer received the world's first patent for "television gaming and educational equipment" and, in fact, became the father of the gaming industry.

Ralph Baer is called the inventor of video games. His first experiments in using a television screen for games date back to 1966. Enlisting the support of two engineers and receiving $ 2,500 for the experiment, Baer created the Brown Box, the world's first video game console system, in two years. She got her name in honor of the fact that her outer coating was made under the veneer.
