Forty Years of Television Progress: Television Technology Highlights from 1976 to the Present

James E. O'Neal, Harvey Arnold

The July 1976 SMPTE Journal celebrated television's technological growth and development with a time line and article (“101 Years of Television Technology”) by Richard S. O'Brien and Robert B. Monroe that depicted and described significant milestones between 1875 and 1976. In celebration of the Society's 100th anniversary, the authors wish to continue that time line to cover the 40 years that have passed since publication of the O'Brien and Monroe article.
