Marie Van Britton Brown was born back in 1922 in New York. However, the decisive year for the life of this scientist was 1966. At that time, the invention number 3,482.03 was registered in the Patent Office, or, much more simply - a video surveillance system for home use!

This woman's patent is kept under the impersonal number 3,482.03. Yet behind this lies an invention that has made millions feel safe in their homes today.

And while these systems are more developed today than ever, the idea of ​​someone being able to monitor their home in the ’60s was unthinkable. And then Marie Van Britan Brown and her partner (and husband) Albert Brown appeared…

Their system was intended for personal safety. It consisted of a system of cameras that could move and cover all corners. Everything that the cameras would record would appear on the central monitor, and as a special addition, Marie also provided a remote control in the system, which would automatically unlock and lock the door.

The user was thus able to change the program on his TV to the appropriate frequency and see who is in front of the door. All in all, it was a real video surveillance system in many ways similar to the one we know today.

Marie's motives for making this, at that time revolutionary invention, were, according to her, very "selfish" - she lived in a black neighborhood in New York, where the police took literally an eternity to respond when calling for help.

Marie received many awards for her invention, including that of the National Committee for Science. She was one of the first African-American scientists to receive this recognition.

Her invention is the basis of modern video surveillance for private and police purposes. Marie Van Britan Brown never felt unsafe at home again. She died on February 2, 1999,
