Color gels
1877 (English)
The first color gels (used for colouring light) were invented in 1877 in the US by Brigham. They were originally made of animal gelatin, hence the name gels. In the mid 20th century plastic carrier materials were introduced, giving longer life and fire resistance, but the term gel is still used.
