“I think there’s a lot of educating that could go on to help people understand how they could contribute inventively and I think most of us have the tools.”

Sharp, alongside Inductee Kristina Johnson, invented polarization-control technology used in products such as projections televisions, front-projection displays and more 3D digital cinema installations today.
