Video (Latin for "I see", first person singular present, indicative of videre, "to see") is the technology of electronically capturing, recording, processing, storing, transmitting, and reconstructing a sequence of still images representing scenes in motion. 

Video technology was first developed for television systems, but has been further developed in many formats to allow for consumer video recording.  Video can also be viewed through the Internet as video clips or streaming media clips on computer monitors. (Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video)
