The inventor to the 'Daguerrotype' was a french artist named Louis Jacques Mandé Daguerre, he came up with the idea in 1824. And in 1829 he partnered up with Joseph Nicephore Niepce. After the death of Niepce in 1833, Daguerre continued to experiment with copper plates coated with silver iodide to produce direct positive pictures. Daguerre discovered that the latent image on an exposed plate could be brought out or "developed" with the fumes from warmed mercury.
