Herbert Eugene Ives (July 21, 1882, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania – November 13, 1953) was a scientist and engineer who headed the development of facsimile and television systems at AT&T in the first half of the twentieth century.

The University of Pennsylvania (also known as Penn) is a private University located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. He wrote a 1920 book on aerial photography, while an Army reserve officer, in the aviation section. Aerial photography is the taking of Photographs of the ground from an elevated position [1] Ives was also an avid coin collector, and was President of the American Numismatic Society.
Like his father Frederic Eugene Ives, Herbert was an expert on color photography. Frederick Eugene Ives (1856–1937 was a US inventor born at Litchfield, Connecticut. In 1924, he transmitted and reconstructed the first color facsimile, using color separations. In 1927, he demonstrated 185-line long-distance television, transmitting the image of then-Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover from AT&T's experimental station 3XN in Whippany, New Jersey.

In the 1940s, Ives expressed his vigorous opposition to Einstein's theory of relativity. Albert Einstein ( German: ˈalbɐt ˈaɪ̯nʃtaɪ̯n; English: ˈælbɝt ˈaɪnstaɪn (14 March 1879 – 18 April 1955 was a German -born theoretical This page is about the scientific concept of relativity for philosophical or sociological theories about relativity see Relativism. [2] Ives did not have an issue with the theory's predictions but with --as he formulated it in 1945[3]-- "The indeterminancies and impotences by which the "Restricted Theory of Relativity" has been widely publicized".
Following the philosophy of Lorentz, he attempted to demonstrate the physical reality of relativistic effects by means of logical arguments and experiments. Hendrik Antoon Lorentz ( July 18, 1853 &ndash February 4, 1928) was a Dutch Physicist who shared the 1902 Nobel He is best known for the Ives–Stilwell experiment, which provided direct confirmation of special relativity's time dilation factor. The Ives–Stilwell experiment exploits the Transverse Doppler effect (TDE described by Albert Einstein in his 1905 paper This article discusses a concept in physics For the concept in sociology see Time displacement.
His friend, the noted physicist H. P. Robertson, contributed the following summary of Ives' attitude toward special relativity in a biography of Ives:
U. S. President Harry Truman awarded Ives a "Medal for Merit" in 1948 for his war-time work on blackout lighting and optical communication systems. [2]
