Frank Gray nyaéta hiji ahli fisika jeung panalungtik di Bell Labs nu nyieun sababaraha inovasi dina television, boh mekanis atawa elektronis, sarta dipieling alatan Gray code-na.

Gray code, atawa kode biner nu direfleksikeun, mucunghul dina paten Gray taun 1953,[1] nyaéta sistim panomeran biner nu mindeng dipaké dina elektronika, sarta loba panerapanana dina matematika.

Gray naratas panalungtikan dina ngamekarkeun televisi; anjeunna ngusulkeun wangun awal "flying spot scanner" keur sistim TV heubeul taun 1927,[2][3] sarta mantuan ngamekarkeun sistim TV scan mekanis dua jalur taun 1930.[4]

Babarengan jeung Pierre Mertz, Gray nulis paper klasik dina matematika sisitim raster scan taun 1934.[5] anjeunna tuluy ilubiung dina mangsa munggaran révolusidigital, bareng jeung Raymond W. Séars, William M. Goodall, John Robinson Pierce, jeung liana di Bell Labs, ku jalan nyadiakeun kode biner nu dipaké ku Séars dina solobong PCM-na, hiji solobong defleksi sinae nu tipena dikolaborasi ku Séars jeung Pierce, nu dipaké dina Televisi Goodall maké modulasi kode pulsa (pulse code modulation, PCM)".[6]
