Of course there have been other great advances, in medicine（医学领域）, in transport, in science, in commerce(商业领域), and many other fields but where would they have been without the instruments and devices that electronics has provided?How would you see a 3D virtual reality image（3D虚拟现实影像） of your beating heart with no electronics? Would you go to a pop concert（流行音乐会）that had no amplifiers（【电子】放大器，扩音器）, large screens or lighting effects?

The radio（无线电） invented by the Italian genius Marconi and the work of Henry Hertz opened the road to further discoveries and inventions.In the first decade the new thing that was welcome to the technical world was the vacuum tube（真空管，电子管）. The vacuum tubes at that time worked as a miraculous component for the radio devices.The invention of the television was a miraculous thing for the mankind. It was revolution in both communication technology（通信技术） and also for the world media. The distances between the continents did not seem to be far enough.The credit goes to the British engineer John Logic Baird who followed the footprints of Marconi and tried to send the images in the same way as the speech. After a long experiment he found that a series of static pictures, if sent within a small interval of time in between them, s
