Beam indexing offered much brighter pictures than shadow-mask CRTs, reducing power consumption, and as they used a single electron gun rather than three, they were easier to build and required no alignment adjustments. Philco led the development of the beam-indexing concept in a series of experimental devices they called the Apple tube. In ...
Fragment of an Apple II computer screen, showing the actual pixel data composed of vertical stripes (top) and the resulting colors when seen on an NTSC TV (bottom) Color graphics on the Apple II uses a quirk of the NTSC television signal standard, which made color display relatively easy and inexpensive to implement.

An RCA Victor Color TV ad featuring milliner Lilly Daché in 1959. Color television (American English) or colour television (Commonwealth English) is a television transmission technology that includes color information for the picture, so the video image can be displayed in color on the television set.
Eventually, Colorplexer stability improved, as did the stability of the video sources, and NTSC color would go on to provide consistently good color, and it did so until 2009, nearly 56 years, a remarkable technological achievement, as, compared with "Three-Strip" Technicolor, perhaps the "exemplar" for color motion pictures, which lasted only ...
Apple would follow the bulbous, candy-colored iMac G3 with the flat-panel, white iMac G4 in 2002. [40] Apple's desktop lineup remained relatively monochrome in the following years; the 2021 release of Apple silicon-based iMacs were sold in seven colors and were considered to hearken back to the iMac's colorful roots.

The Apple II video output is really a monochrome display based upon the bit patterns in the video memory (or pixels). These pixels are combined in quadrature with the colorburst signal to be interpreted as color by a composite video display. This results in a 16-color composite video palette, based on the YIQ color space used by the NTSC color ...
Apple TV+ on Sunday became the first streaming service to win the Academy Award for best picture with "CODA."
Overscan is a behaviour in certain television sets in which part of the input picture is cut off by the visible bounds of the screen. It exists because cathode-ray tube (CRT) television sets from the 1930s to the early 2000s were highly variable in how the video image was positioned within the borders of the screen.
