SMECC is looking for any Philips Broadcast year new or old sorta like http://www.smecc.org/ldk20/philliconnector1.jpg which is one of our ldk-20 cameras... they can say on the side Philips, or later Thomson or BTS Philips was a great developer and implementer of CCD Technology in video cameras. this studio camera has computers in it for the control unit and you can store setups etc on Flash memory cards I keep one at the house to learn to program up the MCU controller etc for the one at the museum. So anything Philips, or later Thomson or BTS hardware, software, cables, adv. materials, training books is indeed welcome here and if you have a lighted script holder we need one for the unit at the museum.... it looks like this... http://www.smecc.org/ldk20/philli57.jpg People ask on our duplicate stuff what would we trade for? here is a non computer area that works well to get some of our extras.

For simple appliances, most in North America were completely unaware of the parent company, because personal care products are marketed under the "Norelco" brand. I believe that Philips acquired Sylvania, then sold it to Funai. In 2000, Philips was the largest manufacturer of semiconductors, having acquired both Signetics and VLSI Technology. later spun off as NXP to a private investment consortium. If you own a Sonicare electric toothbrush, that's Philips too. It's pretty safe to say that almost everyone has a Philips product somewhere in their life--it may not be branded with the Philips name however. --Chuck
