What technology characterized the electronic solutions being pursued simultaneously by inventors like Farnsworth and Zworykin?
Answer
The cathode-ray tube (CRT)
While Baird worked mechanically, other inventors pursued electronic television utilizing the Cathode Ray Tube (CRT), which used an electron beam allowing for instantaneous scanning across the screen.
