    John Logie Baird, from August 13, 1888- June 14, 1946.  he was a Scottish engineer and also the inventor of the world's first working television system. His electromechanical system was eventually displaced by purely electronic systems. And his early achieves, on working television broadcasts and his cinema television and colour work earned him a permanent place in the invention of a television.

    John was born in Helenburgh, Argyll, Scotland. He got his education from Larchfield School, which is a part of Lomond School at the present, Helensburgh; the Glasgow and West of Scotland Technical College, which later on became the University of Strathclyde; and the University of  Glasgow. He could not complete his graduation due to the World War-I and it also interrupted his degree course.Although the invention of television was the result of hard work of a number of inventors, but Baird played a major role in the invention and this field.

    He is given the credit for being the first ever person to produce a live, moving television image in half-tones by the reflection of light. Barid was able to achieve this great height where as others had failed to do so, by obtaining a better photoelectric cell and improving the signal conditioning from the photocell and the video amplifier.

      Although Farnsworth did invent the tv it had to be projected onto a piece of glass painted black.  The first TV was shown at the World's Fair in 1934.

        On December 2, 1922, in Sorbonne, France, Edwin Belin, an Englishman, who held the patent for the transmission of photographs by wire as well as fiber optics and radar, demonstrated a mechanical scanning device that was an early precursor to modern television.
