scanning multichannel microwave radiometer (SMMR)

An imaging system consisting of lenses, moving mirrors, and solid-state image sensors used to obtain observations of Earth and its atmosphere. Scanning radiometers, which are the sole imaging systems on all current operational weather satellites, have far better long-term performance than the vidicon TV camera tubes used with earlier spacecraft.
