Television. What is it? Television (TV) is the most widely used telecommunication medium for transmitting and receiving moving images that are either monochromatic ("black and white") or colour, usually accompanied by sound.
In its early stages of development television employed a combination of optical, mechanical and electronic technologies to capture, transmit and display a visual image. All modern television systems rely on the latter, although the knowledge gained from the work on electromechanical systems was crucial in the development of fully electronic television.
The first images transmitted electrically were sent by early mechanical fax machines, including the pantelegraph, developed in the late nineteenth century. Pantelegraph
