The Magnavox Odyssey is the first commercial home video game console
The Magnavox Odyssey was developed by a small team led by Ralph H and Baer at Sanders Associates and released by Magnavox in the United States in September 1972 and overseas in 1973.
The Odyssey consists of a white, black, and brown box which connects to a television set and two rectangular controllers attached by wires. It is capable of displaying three square dots on the screen in monochrome black and white, with differing behavior for the dots depending on the game played, and with no sound capabilities.
