Maurice ("Maus") Gatsonides (1911-02-14-1998-11-29) was a Dutch rally driver and inventor. Gatsonides was born in Gombong on the island Java in the former Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). He founded the company "Gatsometer BV" in 1958. Today, Gatsonides' fame largely results from inventing the Gatso speed camera, a speed measuring device used today by many police forces around the world to reliably catch drivers who are speeding. He originally invented the Gatso speed camera to measure his cornering speed in an attempt to improve his driving.
