Short for television a TV or telly
is an electronics device that receives a visual and audible
signal and plays it to the viewer. Although debated the TV
is often credited as being invented by Vladimir Kosma
Zworykin a Russian-born American who worked for
Westinghouse, and Philo Taylor Farnsworth, a boy in Beaver
City, Utah who was backed by George Everson. Vladimir held
the patent for the TV, but it was Taylor who was the first
person to first successfully transmit a TV signal on
September 7, 1927.
To the right is an example image of a 1080p HDTV, the
Panasonic TH-58PZ750U, which is the next generation of
televisions.
