Lucien Vidi
Lucien Vidie (1805, Nantes – April 1866, Nantes) was a French physicist. In 1844 he invented the barograph, that is, a device to monitor pressure, a recording aneroid barometer.
Vidie's death was ascribed to his excessive use of hydrotherapy.
His invention was crowned with the gold medal at the World's Fair in 1849. Two years later, at the World's Fair in 1851, he was awarded the Council Medal, shared with his competitor, Lucien Vidi.
