Monitors/Displays
It is somewhat surprising that the technology behind monitors and televisions is over a hundred years old. The precise origin of the cathode-ray tube (CRT) is subject to controversy and can be debated. It's generally agreed that German scientist Karl Ferdinand Braun developed the first controllable CRT in 1897. He added alternating voltages to the device to enable it to send controlled streams of electrons from one end of the tube to the other. However, it wasn't until the late 1940s that CRTs were used in the first television sets. CRTs found in modern day monitors have undergone modifications to improve picture quality. But they still follow the same basic principles.
