Cotton Canvas Tote Bag (Marie Van Brittan Brown)
$11.98 – $12.65
Marie Van Brittan Brown (1922–1999) was an African American nurse and innovator. She significantly impacted home security systems by inventing the first video home security system in 1966. Alongside her husband, Albert Brown, an electronics technician, she applied for a patent for their groundbreaking security system. The patent was granted in 1969.
Here’s how her invention worked:
Four Peepholes: The system included four peepholes strategically placed around the house.
Sliding Camera: A sliding camera could move from peephole to peephole.
TV Monitors: Inside the home, TV monitors displayed the camera feed, allowing Marie to see who was at the door without opening it.
Microphones: The system also had microphones, enabling her to communicate with visitors without opening the door.
Marie Van Brittan Brown’s innovation revolutionized home security, and her legacy endures as a pioneer in this field
