The game Scan Command: Jurassic Park was considered unique for its use of which device that consists of a light source, a lens and a light sensor translating optical impulses into electrical ones?
Barcode reader A barcode reader (or barcode scanner) is an electronic device that can read and output printed barcodes to a computer. Like a flatbed scanner, it consists of a light source, a lens and a light sensor translating optical impulses into electrical ones. Additionally, nearly all barcode readers contain "decoder" circuitry analyzing the barcode's image data provided by the sensor and sending the barcode's content to the scanner's output port.
Magnetic lens A magnetic lens is a device for the focusing or deflection of moving charged particles, such as electrons or ions, by use of the magnetic Lorentz force. Its strength can often be varied by usage of electromagnets. Magnetic lenses are used in diverse applications, from cathode ray tubes over electron microscopy to particle accelerators.
