John Logie Baird transmitted the first pictures over radio waves and proved it could be done. he demonstarted it on Jan 27th 1926 and broadcast for the BBC on Sept 30th 1929, the first public broadcast of television.

TV was invented to bring moving pictures into the home, instead of having to go out to the cinema. Many people said it would never catch on.

Philo Taylor Farnsworth invented the first fully modern electronic television system. He was the first inventor to transmit a television image of a dollar sign (comprised of 60 horizontal lines.) Farnsworth developed the dissector tube, the basis of all current electronic televisions. This was an improvement on mechanical televisions.
