Low-definition colour television
The history of television, from the earliest impractical notions to the commercial success of the new medium, comprises three distinct periods, namely: the period of speculation (c. 1877 to c. 1925); the period of low-definition television broadcasts (c. 1926 to c. 1933); and the period of high-definition television broadcasts (1936 to date). This chapter presents the life and works of John Logie Baird in the development of low-definition colour television.
