This schematic shows the circular paths traced by the holes, that may also be square for greater precision. The area of the disk outlined in black shows the region scanned.

As a 23-year-old German university student, proposed and patented the in 1884. This was a spinning disk with a spiral pattern of holes in it, so each hole scanned a line of the image.

Although he never built a working model of the system, variations of Nipkow's spinning-disk ' became exceedingly common. Had coined the word television in a paper read to the International Electricity Congress at the in on August 24, 1900. Perskyi's paper reviewed the existing electromechanical technologies, mentioning the work of Nipkow and others. However, it was not until 1907 that developments in amplification tube technology, by and among others, made the design practical. The first demonstration of the instantaneous transmission of images was by Georges Rignoux and A.

Fournier in Paris in 1909. A matrix of 64 cells, individually wired to a mechanical, served as an electronic. In the receiver, a type of modulated the light and a series of variously angled mirrors attached to the edge of a rotating disc scanned the modulated beam onto the display screen.

A separate circuit regulated synchronization. The 8x8 resolution in this proof-of-concept demonstration was just sufficient to clearly transmit individual letters of the alphabet. An updated image was transmitted 'several times' each second.

In 1911, and his student created a system that used a mechanical mirror-drum scanner to transmit, in Zworykin's words, 'very crude images' over wires to the ' tube' ( or 'CRT') in the receiver. Moving images were not possible because, in the scanner, 'the sensitivity was not enough and the selenium cell was very laggy'. Demonstrates electronic television (1929) Meanwhile, Vladimir Zworykin was also experimenting with the cathode ray tube to create and show images.

While working for in 1923, he began to develop an electronic camera tube. But in a 1925 demonstration, the image was dim, had low contrast and poor definition, and was stationary. Zworykin's imaging tube never got beyond the laboratory stage. But RCA, which acquired the Westinghouse patent, asserted that the patent for Farnsworth's 1927 image dissector was written so broadly that it would exclude any other electronic imaging device. Thus RCA, on the basis of Zworykin's 1923 patent application, filed a suit against Farnsworth. The examiner disagreed in a 1935 decision, finding priority of invention for Farnsworth against Zworykin. Farnsworth claimed that Zworykin's 1923 system would be unable to produce an electrical image of the type to challenge his patent.
