Digitization of the Indian television

The television is considered one of the greatest inventions of all time and a constant source of joy for the old and young alike. But do we know the man who pioneered the concept of television?

In 1923, John Logie Baird filed a patent for an eight line image device and christened it the “televisor”. Almost a decade later, the British Broadcasting Corporation introduced the world’s first TV broadcasts. Since then there has been no looking back for the television which has come a long way from the eight line image, progressing to black and white, colour in analogue and now to the era of digitization.

Digitization is a technology that facilitates conversion of analogue information into superior, clearer and better digital representation. Digitization will make use of a digital box for TV which helps decrypt signals received from a satellite. In layman’s jargon, a digital box is one which acts as an interface between the satellite reflector and the television.

The process of digitization will be highly beneficial for the people of India, whose Television viewing experience until now had to be at the mercy of local cable operators. Digitization comes with multifarious advantages such as enhanced viewing, better picture quality, improved reception, a larger variety of channels and High Definition Digital (HDD) sound quality to name a few. Further, digitization will also ensure more transparency in the consumer getting his money’s worth. He would know what he is paying for- something which has been a persistent problem with local cable operators.

To eliminate the various drawbacks consumers have faced with local cable operators, big and reliable giants like Videocon have stepped into the digitization industry to ensure provision of quality which this innovation demands.
