Vocabulary Word of the Day: #6 Progressive Scan

When referred to TV's, a progressive scan is where the image is scanned from the top to the bottom in order to create a frame. Often the letter "p" will be tagged onto the end to show what kind of scan the TV uses, for example "1080p." The progressive scan will take the image line by line to show the complete frame.
