Explain working of the vidicon camera tube?

The electrical charge produced by an image taken by a Vidicon Camera tube will remain in the face plate until it is scanned or until the charge dissipates. The target material is made of antimony trisulfide.


What is the principle behind the working of vidicon camera?

A vidicon tube is a video camera tube design in which the target material is a photoconductor. The Vidicon was developed in the 1950s at RCA by P. K. Weimer, S. V. Forgue and R. R. Goodrich as a simple alternative to the structurally and electrically complex Image Orthicon.While the initial photoconductor used was selenium, other targets-including silicon diode arrays-have been used. Schematic of vidicon tube. The vidicon is a storage-type camera tube in which a charge-density pattern is formed by the imaged scene radiation on a photoconductive surface which is then scanned by a beam of low-velocity electrons. The fluctuating voltage coupled out to a video amplifier can be used to reproduce the scene being imaged. The electrical charge produced by an image will remain in the face plate until it is scanned or until the charge dissipates. Pyroelectric photocathodes can be used to produce a vidicon sensitive over a broad portion of the infrared spectrum. Prior to the design and construction of the Galileo probe to Jupiter in the late 1970s to early 1980s, NASA used Vidicon cameras on most of their unmanned deep space probes equipped with the remote sensing ability

What are the Types of a television camera tube?

There are several types of television camera tube (also known as pickup tubes). There is the image dissector, the iconoscope, the Super-Emitron image iconoscope, the Orthicon and CPS Emitron, the image orthicon, and Vidicon. There are also currently several new technologies being developed making several new types of pickup tubes


What is vidicon?

A vidicon is a type of video camera tube that converts an optical image into an electrical signal. It uses a photoconductive layer to capture light, which creates a varying electrical signal corresponding to the brightness of the image. Widely used in early television cameras and video recording systems, vidicons were known for their relatively low cost and ease of use. However, they have largely been replaced by solid-state imaging technologies like CCD and CMOS sensors.

Why did Apollo 12 plan fall through to broadcast color TV?

Human error on the part of LMP Al Bean. When moving the camera into position he accidentally pointed the lens directly at the sun. Because the camera had no lens cap, the direct, intense sunlight burned out the camera's vidicon tubes, rendering the camera inoperable.
