  1. television pickup tube

    A television pickup tube is a component found in some types of television cameras, used to capture and convert visual images into electrical signals. It essentially works as the "eye" of the camera, translating visual information into data that can be transmitted or recorded. Examples of pickup tubes include the orthicon, plumbicon, vidicon, and others. These tubes were used in early analog television systems, prior to the development of solid-state imaging devices like the CCD and CMOS sensors, which are used in most modern digital cameras.
