From movies to the phonograph
to the lightbulb - all were invented in New Jersey.
if your interested in seeing the stuff we take for
granted and had its start in New Jersey.
The Garden State may be short on space, but what we lack in acreage, we
more than make up for in ingenuity. New Jersey, in fact, ranks fourth in
the number of U.S. patents issued (156,813), and it’s the only state in
the nation with its own inventors’ hall of fame. What’s at the root of all that ingenuity? “Certainly, some of it can be
credited to the large number of prominent educational institutions
located here,” says Ralph Selitto Jr., a patent attorney and
spokesperson for the New Jersey Inventors Hall of Fame, citing Princeton
University, Stevens Institute of Technology, and the New Jersey
Institute of Technology as “leaders in engineering and science.”
