I changed the order up a bit and decided to look at Trinitron now rather than later. I'm still working on captions and that other fun stuff (including the description, no patrons are listed yet), so expect the video to change a little bit over time. I hope you enjoy this, the last video of 2017!

Trinitron: Sony's Once Unbeatable Product

You can support this channel on Patreon! Link below Throughout much of the analog television era, Sony was the fairly undisputed king of TVs. Their Trinitron picture tube was a universally well received technology and made a number of important improvements on the standard color picture tube. This is the story of its creation. **The trinitron CRT wasn't impervious to Moire patterns. However, it was less prone to them because of the lack of a phosphor grid. Vertical misalignment could still occur with the aperture grille, so moire patterns could still appear on patterns with strong vertical stripes. However, moire patterns wouldn't appear with horizontal image components due to the lack of distinct phosphor groupings. **The patent expired in 1996, not 1998.
