200 Years of Patents (III). Gallery of Great Inventors
The virtual exhibition “200 Years of Patents” includes the gallery “Great Inventors,” a service dedicated to authors, or at least the definitive drivers of radical innovations that have contributed, and continue to contribute, to the technological, industrial and economic progress of the modern world.
During the tour of the gallery we will have the opportunity to meet those enshrined in the technology group, along with their inventions, such as Thomas Edison (light bulb), Isaac Peral (submarine), Ricardo de la Cierva (rotary-wing aircraft), Leonardo Torres Quevedo (remote control) and Alejandro Goicoechea (Talgo train), not forgetting Ayanz Jerome, Augustine Betancourt, Cosme Garcia, and more recently Margarita Salas, all pioneers in fields as diverse as the steam engine, the submarine, and biotechnology.
