Television History

Pada tahun 1873 seorang operator telegram asal Valentia, Irlandia yang bernama Joseph May menemukan bahwa cahaya mempengaruhi resistansi elektris selenium. Ia menyadari itu bisa digunakan untuk mengubah cahaya kedalam arus listrik dengan menggunakan fotosel silenium (selenium photocell). Joseph May bersama Willoughby Smith (teknisi dari Telegraph Construction Maintenance Company) melakukan beberapa percobaan yang selanjutnya dilaporkan pada Journal of The Society of Telegraph Engineers. Hal ini merupakan embrio dari teknologi perekaman gambar.

Setelah beberapa kurun waktu lamanya kemudian diciptakan sebuah piringan metal kecil yang bisa berputar dengan lubang-lubang didalamnya oleh seorang mahasiswa yang bernama Julius Paul Gottlieb Nipkow (1860-1940) atau lebih dikenal Paul Nipkow di Berlin, Jerman pada tahun 1884 dan disebut sebagai cikal bakal lahirnya televisi. Sekitar tahun 1920 John Logie Baird (1888-1946) dan Charles Francis Jenkins (1867- 1934) menggunakan piringan karya Paul Nipkow untuk menciptakan suatu sistem dalam penangkapan gambar, transmisi, serta penerimaannya. Mereka membuat seluruh sistem televisi ini berdasarkan sistem gerakan mekanik, baik dalam penyiaran maupun penerimaannya. Pada waktu itu belum ditemukan komponen listrik tabung hampa (Cathode Ray Tube)



Televisi elektronik agak tersendat perkembangannya pada tahun-tahun itu, lebih banyak disebabkan karena televisi mekanik lebih murah dan tahan banting. Bukan itu saja, tetapi juga sangat susah untuk mendapatkan dukungan finansial bagi riset TV elektronik ketika TV mekanik dianggap sudah mampu bekerja dengan sangat baiknya pada masa itu. Sampai akhirnya Vladimir Kosmo Zworykin (1889-1982) dan Philo T. Farnsworth (1906-1971) berhasil dengan TV elektroniknya. Dengan biaya yang murah dan hasilnya berjalan baik, maka orang-orang pada waktu itu berangsur-angsur mulai meninggalkan tv mekanik dan menggantinya dengan tv elektronik.

Vladimir Zworykin, yang merupakan salah satu dari beberapa pakar pada masa itu, mendapat bantuan dari David Sarnoff (1891-1971), Senior Vice President dari RCA (Radio Corporation of America). Sarnoff sudah banyak mencurahkan perhatian pada perkembangan TV mekanik, dan meramalkan TV elektronik akan mempunyai masa depan komersial yang lebih baik. Selain itu, Philo Farnsworth juga berhasil mendapatkan sponsor untuk mendukung idenya dan ikut berkompetisi dengan Vladimir.


TV ELEKTRONIK
Baik Farnsworth, maupun Zworykin, bekerja terpisah, dan keduanya berhasil dalam membuat kemajuan bagi TV secara komersial dengan biaya yang sangat terjangkau. Di tahun 1935, keduanya mulai memancarkan siaran dengan menggunakan sistem yang sepenuhnya elektronik. Kompetitor utama mereka adalah Baird Television, yang sudah terlebih dahulu melakukan siaran sejak 1928, dengan menggunakan sistem mekanik seluruhnya. Pada saat itu sangat sedikit orang yang mempunyai televisi, dan yang mereka punyai umumnya berkualitas seadanya. Pada masa itu ukuran layar TV hanya sekitar tiga sampai delapan inchi saja sehingga persaingan mekanik dan elektronik tidak begitu nyata, tetapi kompetisi itu ada disana.

TV RCA, Tipe TT5 1939, RCA dan Zworykin siap untuk program reguler televisinya, dan mereka mendemonstrasikan secara besar-besaran pada World Fair di New York. Antusias masyarakat yang begitu besar terhadap sistem elektronik ini, Monetizemenyebabkan the National Television Standards Committee [NTSC], 1941, memutuskan sudah saatnya untuk menstandarisasikan sistem transmisi siaran televisi di Amerika. Lima bulan kemudian, seluruh stasiun televisi Amerika yang berjumlah 22 buah itu, sudah mengkonversikan sistemnya kedalam standard elektronik baru.

Pada tahun-tahun pertama, ketika sedang resesi ekonomi dunia, harga satu set televisi sangat mahal. Ketika harganya mulai turun, Amerika terlibat perang dunia ke dua. Setelah perang usai, televisi masuk dalam era emasnya. Sayangnya pada masa itu semua orang hanya dapat menyaksikannya dalam format warna hitam putih.

TV BERWARNA
Sebenarnya CBS sudah lebih dahulu membangun sistem warnanya beberapa tahun sebelum rivalnya RCA. Tetapi sistem mereka tidak kompatibel dengan kebanyakan TV hitam putih diseluruh negara. CBS yang sudah mengeluarkan banyak sekali biaya untuk sistem warna mereka harus menyadari kenyataan bahwa pekerjaan mereka berakhir sia-sia. Belajar dari pengalaman CBS, RCA mulai membangun sistem warna menurut formatnya sendiri. Mereka dengan cepat membuat sistem warna yang mampu untuk diterima pada sistem warna maupun hitam putih. Setelah RCA memperlihatkan kemampuan sistem mereka, format NTSC kemudian dijadikan acuan standart untuk siaran komersial pada tahun 1953.

Seiring dengan berjalannya waktu serta perkembangan teknologi, televisi dari waktu ke waktu mulai banyak perbaikan dan penambahan dari sisi teknologinya. Untuk waktu kedepan televisi perlahan mulai meninggalkan teknologi analog dan menginjak ke era yang disebut televisi digital dengan kemampuan dan kualitas yang lebih baik dari generasi sebelumnya yang lazim disebut dengan teknologi IPTV [Internet Protocol Television].

Tentang diriku

Aku seorang mahasiswi yang mengambil jurusan broadcast jurnalism..Pada awalnya aku mengambil jurusan tersebut karan dunia itu adalah duniaku,namun seiring berjalannya waktu entah mengapa bayang-bayang keindahan itu seakan lenyap dengan begitu banyaknya competitor di luar sana.Dunia ini memang telah banyak diminati oleh orang-orang,khususnya orang-orang yang amat tertarik oleh dunia pertelevisian/dunia media.

Untuk mahasiswa semester pertama memang ini sangat berat karena sangat banyak sekali teori-teori yang diluar dari bayangan kita pada awal mendaftar kuliah di jurusan ini..aku merasakan seperti ini,tak pernah aku membayangkan akan mendapat teori yang sebegitu rumitnya untuk dipikirkan.Namun tak usah kita pusingkan hal-hal demikian karena cita-cita adalah prioritas kita...Ayo para mahasiswa broadcasting,mari kita berjuang demi tujuan kita..
