Many different mechanical TV systems were invented by different people, but the image on all such systems was too dim to make them practical. You might be thinking of John Logie Baird he was one of these mechanical TV inventors, in 1884......John Logie Baird wasn't born until 1888!

The inventor of electronic TV was 14 year old Philo Taylor Farnsworth, who came up with the idea in 1921 while plowing a field near his hometown in Utah. The back and forth path of the plow suggested to him the sweep of an electron beam across a phosphorescent screen of a CRT.
