I saw for the first time the reception of wireless pictures in Dublin a few days ago. The whole thing was done with apparent ease. The demonstration took place in the offices of the Irish Radio News, the new "Fultograph" system being employed. The B.B.C. is at present giving a limited service of picture transmissions during the week, while Berlin and Vienna have been broadcasting pictures for a number of months.
Captain Otho Fulton, the inventor of the system, has been engaged in experimental and research work for a great number of years. He was associated with Mr Thomas Baker, the well-known authority on facsimile transmission and reception, in his experiments carried out about twenty years ago. In case readers may think that facsimile telegraphy is a new thing, I can assure them that as far back as 1841 Bains' chemical telegraph was discussed in scientific circles. Numerous other scientists have contributed their quota to the now popular systems in operation both on the Continent and in America.
