CRT
(Cathode Ray Tube)
CRT, or Cathode Ray Tube, is a technology used in older television and computer monitor displays. It works by firing electrons from a cathode onto a phosphorescent screen, creating images through the illumination of phosphor dots.
CRT displays were widely used before the advent of modern LCD and LED screens. They were known for their high contrast ratios and fast response times, making them popular for applications like gaming and graphic design. However, CRTs were bulky, heavy, and consumed more power compared to modern display technologies. Despite their decline in popularity, CRTs are still used in specialized applications, such as medical imaging and aviation, where their unique characteristics are advantageous.
