Bad news . The world of technology has lost one of its pioneers a few days ago: Bryce Bayer, best known as the father of digital photography.'s the man to whom we owe much of what we currently know about digital images. Maybe your name will sound familiar, and not be to a drug company, but due to Bayer filter, which even today is used in virtually all cameras produced digital, not to mention it was patented in 1976 and is used since. This filter is used to recreate a color image from a grayscale captured, and before it was invented, this process was highly complex.
In the 1990s, Bayer put aside his old company, Kodak, and continued with his life until recently. Undoubtedly it will be remembered, as if you can place your name (or name) to something that is used even more than 30 years after it was invented, it's because you've accomplished something that many have never been.
