The Technology Of Today's Televisions

By Matthew Kerridge

If you are currently in the market for a new television, now is the best time for state of the art entertainment. The T. V. Has come a long way since it's inception and as technology gets better and better, the quality of T. V.'s will get better as well. They are also getting bigger in size as the price gets lower. This is always a bonus.

Through the late eighteen hundreds, the television was being invented in various forms. The first real working one with a digital scanner that was able to broadcast shows was on the market in'29 in Germany and in'36 the Olympic Games were televised for the world to watch.

The first televisions were black and white and offered limited viewing options. But now with the color T. V., options are numerous when seeking out the perfect unit. And with the recent addition of high definition and fantastic stereo capabilities, this search is more exciting

The size of new televisions have changed. The first T. V.'s were housed in large wooden furniture pieces and took up quite lot of room. On top of that, they were heavy. Now with the introduction of the flat screen and plasma T. V.'s, units can be indiscreetly hung on the wall of your home. Now instead of a bulky piece of furniture, they look more like a piece of art. And with the help of your DVD player, you really can display artwork on the wall with your T. V. Other creative options include aquariums as well as fireplace videos.

The high definition television has the capability to broadcast programs and movies in a higher resolution than regular units. The picture is clearer, almost lifelike. With so many of the cable programs now available with high definition, the only way to watch them this way if you have a high definition T. V.

If you are limited in floor space in your home, or you are looking for something more modern, then the flat panel version that is wall mountable is a great option. This unit is hung on the wall with special brackets to ensure safety and basically looks like a large picture frame on your wall.

The television comes in all sizes now, from hand held to the world's largest T. V. At one hundred ten inches and seven hundred twenty eight pounds. T. V.'s are even coming in kid specific designs, the casing made of bright colored plastics and decorated with children's cartoon designs.
