There is continued discussion about the development of television. Here is a brief timeline of the major milestones than began television.

1925 John Logie Baird demonstrated the first moving pictures sent electronically using an electro-mechanical system.

1927 Philo Farnsworth demonstrated his television system, also an electro-mechanical system

1929 John Logie Baird's system was used by the BBC in London for the first television broadcasts. Televisions were available for sale to the public in England.

1929 Philo Farnsworth demonstrated the first fully electronic system that did not use moving parts.

1934 British television moved to a fully electronic system, so making the Baird system redundant.

1939 - RCA began production of televisions sets in the US for sale to the public.

All of the dates are significant and all can be considered the year that TV was made. Whichever date is picked, it is also clear that the efforts of Baird and Farnsworth along with several of their predecessors were instrumental in the start of the television industry that we see today.
