Jan Szczepanik. Artysta wynalazku

Summary The illegitimate son of the daughter of farmers from near Krosno was later called the "Polish Edison" or "Leonard da Vinci from Galicia". He was the first person to translate an optical image into small fragments comparable to today's pixels. This allowed it to be copied perfectly onto another medium. He made his first prints on fabric. Szczepanik was also the first person to send a primitive image remotely via a telephone line. He also patented a film recording and playback system based on three primary colors: red, green and blue (RGB). His friend Mark Twain devoted two stories to him. In one he described the television prototype he had invented. In cooperation with two other inventors, Mikolaj Reisser and Kazimierz Zeglen, he invented a silk fabric that was able to stop bullets from a gun. Thanks to it, in 1902 he created the first bulletproof vest made entirely of fabric. Similar material was then used to brake space shuttles.
