Daniel McFarlan Moore

1904 photograph illustrating interior lighting by the first installation of Moore tubes in a hardware store in Newark, New Jersey.

Daniel McFarlan Moore (February 27, 1869 June 15, 1936) was a U.S. electrical engineer and inventor. He developed a novel light source, the "Moore lamp", and a business that produced them in the early 1900s. The Moore lamp was the first commercially viable light-source based on gas discharges instead of incandescence; it was the predecessor to contemporary neon lighting and fluorescent lighting. In his later career Moore developed a miniature neon lamp that was extensively used in electronic displays, as well as vacuum tubes that were used in early television systems.
