Closed Circuit Television

Closed Circuit Television captures Bond’s race underground to Tiger Tanaka’s underground refuge. And in glorious technicolor.

Although the United States saw its first Closed Circuit Television systems in 1949, it was not developed further, which is obviously a little surprising considering how widespread its usage is today. In the late 1960s, it was still not available commercially. 

In 1973 it was installed in Times Square, New York to help with the battle against crime in the city. As commercially available electronic equipment, the device has not looked back.
