Anthony Wood is a modern-day mad scientist, having twice revolutionized the media landscape. In 2002 he unveiled ReplayTV, an innovative device that finally let you record and pause live TV – something we now take for granted. As technology advanced so too did Anthony’s ambitions; driven to deliver digital content directly onto people’s television sets with ease of use at its core, in 2008 The Roku box was born – offering easy access without requiring familiarity or understanding of complex tech interfaces. Thanks to his pioneering vision it’s hard even today to imagine what life would be like had these inventions not been made!
