What is the device that record image on a silicon chips instead of on traditional film?

The device that records images on silicon chips instead of traditional film is called a digital camera. It uses electronic sensors, such as CCD (Charge-Coupled Device) or CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor), to capture light and convert it into digital data. This data is then processed and stored on memory cards, allowing for easy viewing, editing, and sharing of images. Digital cameras have largely replaced film cameras due to their convenience and flexibility.
