Correct answer: A cassette tape

The world's first digital camera, constructed by Steven Sasson at Kodak, recorded black-and-white images onto a standard cassette tape. It took 23 seconds to capture a single 0.01-megapixel image, and the cassette had to be played back through a custom playback device connected to a television screen. Despite this breakthrough, Kodak executives initially dismissed the invention, fearing it would threaten their lucrative film business. Photo: Aljawad, Wikimedia Commons, CC BY 3.0.
