As Larry Gelbart once said, “Today's audience knows more about what's on television than what's in life;” he was right. People now are too caught up with what is on TV and they spend most of their time on it. But how did this all start? In the late 1800s, Paul Gottlieb Nipkow, a student in Germany, developed the first ever mechanical module of television. He succeeded in sending images through wires with the help of a rotating metal disk. This technology was called the ‘electric telescope’ that had 18 lines of resolution.Electronic television was first successfully demonstrated in San Francisco on Sept. 7, 1927. The system was designed by Philo Taylor Farnsworth, a 21-year-old inventor. Now there are LCD(Liquid crystal display) televisions that are flat screens. Early LCD television had drawbacks relative to traditional visual display technologies. It displayed fast-moving action with "ghosting" and could be viewed best only when looking directly at the screen or from a slight angle. Most of these problems were solved in recent years, and LCD televisions, along with plasma displays, have become more popular worldwide than cathode ray display televisions.
In the Future, I believe the TV screen will be as thin as paper and it will have a much better resolution and it could also improve on the 3D models of TV that have already come out. The 3D TVs will not only exist in theaters but also in homes and they will range from different sizes and shapes just like regular TVs. I also believe that the TV industry will com up with ways in which 3D movies could be seen without 3D glasses. In addition, new TV technology will come up with TV displays and sets that are built in the wall. This would make houses look much beautiful and they would be really thin and elegant instead of the slight bulkiness that the present TV has.
