We're doing a lab about Basic Oscilloscope Operation. We had a Lissajous Figures Activity and we need to generate the infinity pattern using the oscilloscope. Please help me with this question.
Question 2:
Generating images electronically has become a multibillion dollar industry since the advent of the television in 1920s and its subsequent mass adoption by consumers after the second world war. The oscilloscopes you have learned to use can be thought of as a primitive television. Watch the following video

Try to do some research and draw parallels to the working so the CRT TV to the oscilloscope and try to understand the difference between modern thin televisions and CRT televisions and discuss the difference between what the lights are doing and what you actually see.
The cathode ray oscilloscope is the device to check the waveform of the signal and approx the same thing is used in CRT TV where using magnets makes a complete picture but in the case of modern flat TV a different mechanism is used. Second and third picture here are rotated 90 degrees counterclock wise.
