jan 1, 1918 - Video Camera
Description:
Description:The whole idea of how to record moving images was first conceptualized by John Logie Baird during the early 1900s. He drew inspiration from the Nipkow Disk, which is a mechanical device that breaks images down into “scan lines”. As these are viewed through several equidistant holes created around a circular disk, it gives off the illusion that these are actually moving. Baird used this framework and married it with his own electronic scanning technology, which laid down the foundation of the video camera we know today.
