How #RCA's #VideoDisc Failure Became a #Semiconductor Success Story. This #HomeVideo Wannabe launched a scanning #microscope. RCA expected the VideoDisc to capture half of the home video market, but instead it lost out in a big way to #VHS. But the exquisitely sensitive capacitance sensors used in the VideoDisc players were capable of measuring capacitance differences on the scale of attofarads (1 Γ 10-18 farad), perfect for the scanning capacitance microscope (#SCM)!
