16. Explain the difference between analog and digital video and give an example of when to use
(p. 167) each format.

Analog video has a resolution measured in the number of horizontal scan lines (due to the
nature of early cathode tube cameras), but each of those lines represents continuous
measurements of the color and brightness along the horizontal axis in a linear signal that is
analogous to an audio signal. Analog video is cheaper to produce and best suited for audio
and video transmission with a limitation of the amount of data that can be transferred at one
time. Digital video signals, on the other hand, consist of a discrete color and brightness value
for each pixel on the screen. The more pixels, the higher the resolution. Digital video is more
expensive to produce and best suited for computers and digital electronics.
