pixel flames on a car. |
The word "pixel" was first published in
1965 by Frederic C. Billingsley of JPL, to describe
the picture elements of video images from space
probes to the Moon and Mars. However, Billingsley
did not coin the term himself. Instead, he got the
word "pixel" from Keith E. McFarland,
at the Link Division of General Precision in Palo
Alto, who did not know where the word originated.
McFarland said simply it was "in use at the
time" (circa 1963)... |
