11. The camera-as-eye (or vice versa) metaphor perhaps led to one of the more gruesome incidents in the development of electronic imaging. Television pioneer John Logie Baird in the 1920s tried - briefly - to build an electronic camera using an actual human eyeball as a sensor. See O. E. Dunlap, Jr. , The Outlook for Television (New York, NY: Harper Brothers, 1932), p. 81.

16. As it happened, the 405- and 441-line video standards developed in the late 1930s in North America and Europe were phased out in the 1950s, to be replaced by the 525- and 625-line standards that remain as of the date of this article.

The idea would return: 50 years later, 'multisync' computer monitors would instead use a microprocessor to determine - and adapt to - the scanning parameters by examining the incoming video signal.
