History of Plasma Display The first ever plasma display was made in the year 1964 by the graduate student Robert Willson for the PLATO Computer System, Donald Bitzer, and H. Gene Slottow from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Larry F. Weber, a student from the same university was able to make an energy recovery sustain circuit for the plasma TV, which has been included in plasma displays even now. This technology was then futher developed by many people and multi-national companies started to economize it by the early 80′s. In the year 1983, IBM began selling a 19 inch orange-on-black monochrome display. But they stopped its production permamnently as the product had a very tough competition with monochrome LCD’s. The plasma displays in this period could not be usd as TV’s as they did not have TV tuners. They were only used to display a standard video signal.Now all the plasma TV’s have their own digital Tv tuners. The first colour plasma display was introduced in the year 1992 by the Fujitsu company. The company later released a 42 inch plasma TV in the year 1997 which had a high resolution of 852×480. This technology began to overrule the CRT revolution for the coming years. Lately, after the invention of LCD TV, the demand for Plasma TV became lesser. As the same configuration for a lesser price is available the sale of Plasma Tv became lesser.
