Thinking of a few currently available graphic display technologies in everday use.
*GPS - Theoretically, you could could still create and launch Global Positioning Satellites and gather and share GPS data in table format for surveying, navigation, etc, but how to put it to visual use? 2-D Plotter?
* Security systems - no video, but alarm based response, 1950's style
* Severe Weather Warnings - no video and Radar data becomes tabular collections of continually changing information to be ciphered through. Even if you could cipher out that dangerous conditions were anticipated for specific areas, how would you share that detail in timely fashion? I live in the US Midwest - the weather can change pretty drastically in a few minutes - I routinely check the local weather radar to help plan ahead.
Video vs Film - You can capture the same scene with both, but the delivery of video images has become realtime vs the significant delay of developing and shipping film to theaters. That's both a cultural and technological chasm. Also, think viral video of a surprise news event vs planning to have a reporter on site to cover the story.
