It is amazing to find that HDTV's have approximately one to two million pixels in every frame and this is the reason why they have become so popular as this is five times more than standard definition TV's. The earlier versions of HDTV's used analog techniques but the recent forms of HDTV's are digital and also utilize video compression.

It is surprising to note that the term 'high definition' was used from the early 1930s but these systems can be considered as high definitions only while comparing to the earlier models of mechanical systems which had resolution as low as 30 lines. In 1936, the high definition TV service commenced in Britain which mainly utilized the mechanical systems which is the Baird 240line and the electronic system which is the Marconi EMI 405 line. Color broadcasts occurred a couple of years later in 1953, starting with the US NTSC color system which used similar resolutions of 525 lines. France started its analog systems in 1949 at 819 lines system, which was just a monochrome image and was utilized only for VHF of the French TV Channel. However, it was used for a long time and was stopped being used in 1985. The famous MUSE system commenced its use in United States in 1981. The then US President of United States was so amazed by a demonstration of MUSE that he proclaimed that HDTV should be released all over America.

Digital compression has a long history in terms of its discovery and its varied forms of technological enhancements. The first step towards digital compression was started by International Telecommunication Union's radio in 1972, it is this method that has been improved upon for use in more recent times.

HDTV began to be widely used in the USA during the early 1990s which was initiated by the Digital HD TV Grand Alliance which is a collaboration of television companies and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The release of the American Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) HD TV system for public viewing was started on 29th October, 1998. For European HDTV broadcasts, the mission started in the 1990s but it was not until 2004 that they were available for public viewing.

The most popular modern day example of the 42-inch HDTV is a work of sheer genius that is the result of long and amazing journey, providing enjoyment to many.
