FIRST EDITION. NIPKOW'S PATENT DECRIBING HIS APPARATUS TO TRANSMIT AN IMAGE ELECTRONICALLY, which was the first practical television system. A student of Helmholtz's in Berlin, Nipkow developed a scanning disc that registered an image as a series of lighter or darker areas using a selenium photocell, which could then be transmitted electronically to a light source which projected the image through a synchronised disc, thus inventing the first practical television system. However, the technique was limited by various technological impediments and other methods superceded it; nonetheless, Nipkow's invention remains the first practical television technology, developed some forty years before Baird's first public demonstration of his television system.
