WHAT DOES CAMERA TUBE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

camera tube

Video camera tube

The video camera tube was a type of cathode ray tube used to capture the television image prior to the introduction of charge-coupled devices in the mid to late 1980s. Several types were in use from the 1930s to the 1980s. In these tubes, the cathode ray was scanned across a target which was illuminated by the scene to be broadcast. The resultant current was dependent on the brightness of the image on the target. The size of the impinging ray was tiny compared to the size of the target, allowing 483 horizontal scan lines per image.
