William Higinbotham was an American physicist and an influential figure in the early history of computer science and video games. He is best known for creating one of the first interactive computer games, called "Tennis for Two," in 1958. This game was designed to be played on an oscilloscope and allowed two players to simulate a game of tennis by controlling the angle of their shots.
