    The Evolution of Television

    Uploaded by

    Amira Sawadjaan
    The evolution of television began in the early 1800s with scientific experiments in electronics and the discovery of electricity. Key developments included the first still image transmission in 1862, converting images to electrical signals in 1873, and Alexander Graham Bell's photophone in 1880 which could transmit sound and images. The first use of the term "television" was in 1900, and the first moving picture was developed in 1924. Color television was released to the public in 1950, and digital technologies like DLP, VCRs, plasma screens, LCD, and LED displays revolutionized the industry in subsequent decades. Today, smart TVs with internet connectivity are emerging as the next phase in television's continuing evolution.

    In the Early 1800s the era of electronic inventions began


    Scientists commenced working with electronics to make life better. They knew very
    little about electricity and how it worked.

    A still picture is transferred in 1862

    Abbe Giovanna Caselli invented the Pantelegraph. It could transfer an image through wires,
    similar to the way telephone wires transfer sound.
    The transfer of pictures to signals in 1873

    Two scientists named Smith and May experimented with selenium. It helped them figure out that they
    could transform pictures into signals to be sent over wires more easily.
    The Creation of the photophone in 1880

    Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Edison came up with the Photophone. It could transfer sound, but
    they aimed for it to do the same with pictures at a higher quality.

    The technology works leveled up in 1884

    A man named Paul Nipkow figured out how to send multiple pictures through wires. He used a rotating
    disk to move the pictures.

    It was named television in 1900


    The first "television" coined by Constantin Perskyi was seen at the 1900 World Fair in Paris.
    A new kind of TV was invented in 1907
    Scientist Boris Rosing developed a new way to work the television. It used something called
    cathode rays by Paul Nipkow and a vacuum tube by Lee de Forest.

    The moving picture is developed in 1924


    A scientist from Scotland, named John Baird, developed a way to capture objects in motion. It
    was called the moving picture, and paved the way for movies and TV shows.
    The television is tested publically in 1925
    The first long distance television test ran between Washington D.C. and New York.

    The TV revolutions grows in 1936


    At first the TV reach was very small. By 1936 there were 200 sets in use, but that number quickly
    grew.
    1939 Another World Fair exhibit
    TV's were tested at the World Fair in 1939 to market to the public. One of the first TV brands was
    RCA.

    1950 Color TV is released


    Color TV had been in development for many years. It was finally released to the public in 1950.
    TV from the moon 1969
    Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon and the whole world saw through their television sets.
    The TV revolution had begun.

    Digital Light Processing (DLP) was developed in 1987


    Digital Light Processing (DLP) is a type of projector technology that uses a digital micromirror
    device by Larry Hornbeck of Texas Instruments.

    Sony introduce Betamax, the first home video cassette recorder in 1975
    It was developed by Sony and was released in Japan on May 10, 1975.
    Super VHS is introduced in 1986
    Victor Company of Japan introduced S-VHS in Japan in April 1986 with their JVC-branded
    HR-S7000 VCR, and in certain overseas markets soon afterward.

    The Plasma flat screen takes over in 1997


    Developers at Panasonic developed and released the flat screen TV. It quickly took over the TV
    market.
    LCD televisions boomed and surpassed the sales of CRT-based televisions worldwide for the first time
    in 2007
    Liquid-crystal-display televisions (LCD TV) are television sets that use Liquid-crystal displays to
    produce images. LCD televisions are much thinner and lighter than cathode ray tube (CRTs).

    LED displays were first introduced to the consumer in 2009

    An OLED (organic light-emitting diode) is a light-emitting diode (LED) in which


    the emissive electroluminescent layer is a film of organic compound which emits light in response to
    an electric current.
    The Immergence of Smart TV (Television) in the present
    Sometimes referred to as connected TV, hybrid TV. Smart TV is a television set with integrated Internet
    and interactive "Web 2.0" features. Smart TV is a technological convergence between computers and
    flatscreen television sets and set-top boxes.

    AND THEN MAYBE THE FUTURE MIGHT LOOK LIKE THIS

    HOLOGRAM
    It will continue to change–all aspects of it. Devices will get smarter, thinner, more affordable,
    have better resolution, etc. Broadcast technology will offer more addressable options to advertisers and
    will send higher definition images to households. And programming will continue to evolve to attract and
    retain its audiences.
