How televisions have evolved over the past 80 years

Televisons have changed dramatically over the years and are apart of everyday life. The first ever tv was invented in 1925 by John Baird. It was big, bulky and heavy with not the prettiest design. Not many familes were able to afford a tv because of the pay they were getting from their jobs. The jobs back then weren't good enough for a lot of families to have a television. Colour televisions were then introduced in 1953 but it wasnt until the 1960s that more and more colour televison were introduced. In todays world tv's have become better and better with the style of it, the weight, the colour resolution and the quality of the picture. In 1996 sony brought out large flat screen tv's. At the same time though flat screen tv's were able to purhcase but only in a limited amount of sizes. A year after Sharp and Sony brought out the first large flat screen tv. It was a record 42 inches. Since then technology has expanded and evolved. Televisons have been used a lot within education, videos and films are shown to help the students with work they are doing. what does the future hold?
