Television systems before 1940. A number of experimental and broadcast pre World War II television systems were tested. The first ones were mechanical based (mechanical television) and of very low resolution, sometimes with no sound. Later TV systems were electronic (electronic television).
From the early experiments with visual transmissions, two types of television systems came into existence: mechanical television and electronic television. Mechanical television developed out of Nipkow’s disk system and was pioneered by British inventor John Logie Baird.

In 1879, Constantin M. SENLECQ was first to use selenium in his first device called Télectroscope [190, 191] in which changing electrical conductivity properties of selenium when exposed to light were used. In June 5, 1880, George R. Carey used the array of selenium photocells and current through each photocell varies depending on intensity of ligh...
Cathode-ray tubes form the basis of reproduction pictures from the received video signal, work on the basis of electric discharge. In March 04,1858John P. Gassiot , vice president of the Royal Society in his Bakerian lecture, reports deflection of electric discharge by means of magnetic and electrostatic fields. The German mathematician and physici...
Max Dieckmann and Gustav Glage were first to use raster scan principle to produce image on cathode-ray tube in 1906 wherein image was divided in to successive samples called “pixels”/indexPixels along scan lines and each scan line is read and transmitted simultaneously. In modern-day television systems, each scan line consisting of a row of pixels ...
In St. Petersburg, Boris Rosing, a Russian scientist along with his student Vladimir Zworykin developed a system using mechanical mirror drum scanner for transmission of crude images to receive them in cathode-ray tube (CRT) or Braun tube which acted as a receiver where the transmitted images can be viewed. Noting the shortcomings of mechanical sca...
On July 03, 1928, John Logie Baird demonstrated world’s first colour transmission using mechanical scanning disks at both transmitting and receiving ends using three spirals of holes on them. Each spiral has filter of three primary colours operated on the principle of stereoscopic vision.
Initial television broadcasting was in the form of experimental test broadcasting using existing call signs and in May 10, 1928, station with call sign WGY operating on 790 kHz (AM), (where W stands for wireless, G stands for General Electric and Y stands for last letter of Schenectady where it is located), licensed to Schenectady, New York, starte...
In 1931, John Logie Baird decided to work ultra-shortwave transmission as medium waves used by BBC, limited Baird’s transmission to only 30 lines. He gave demonstration of his ultra-shortwave transmitter at Long Acre on April 29, 1932. In 1932, due to shortage of funds, Baird Television Ltd (BTL) was taken over by Isidore Ostrer and the Gaumont-Bri...
