As with monochrome television, color television is the product of many developments and many people.

The first color television was shown off by John Logie Baird in 1928. This was just three years after he demonstrated the world's first working monochrome television. Although his monochrome television was used by the BBC for public broadcasts, his color version never made it to production. Both systems used rotating discs to build an image and the color version demanded three of them. Although it was cumbersome, it did demonstrate the principle of using red, green and blue images to create a full color picture. This same principle is still in use today.

After developments in electronics, the National Television Standards Committee agreed a color encoding system to carry a full color signal that was compatible with existing monochrome signals. The system is now known as NTSC and was introduced across the US as a commercial service in 1955. This saw the first introduction of commercial color broadcasts in America with other countries introducing color services over the following 20 years.

Why didn't television have color when it was first invented?

I have thought of 2 answers. A. The technology to do it was not considered possible, although John Logie Baird in 1927/28 made a mechanical colour system using a regular mechanical TV which he invented and a colour disc. He later invented the first electric colour TV system, google Baird Telechrome. B. The idea of a television service was still in early stages, so people did not consider improving it as they were too busy transmitting the regular system. The BBC did not start using/developing colour until 1958/59/60. It was first broadcast on BBC2 exclusively in 1967, and ITV and BBC1 began colour broadcasts in 1969. RCA/NBC began using a system also invented by Baird, using colour filters spinning in front of a regular CRT, in 1951. Baird had developed this system at his HQ at Crystal Palace, from 1939/46 when he died, aged 57/58.
