KAZAN UNIVERSITY AND THE HISTORY OF WORLD TELEVISION

Abstract

Television, being the most accessible and popular means of mass media in the world, plays a major role in the development of human society. In the context of globalization and information society, interest in the historical origins of a particular phenomenon is natural. In the history of world television, a special place is occupied by the inventions of the first color television system and audio-video magnetic recording, which belong to Russian inventors A.A. Polumordvinov and A.M. Ponyatov, whose fate was connected with Kazan and Kazan University - the oldest university in Russia, which turned 220 years old in 2024.
