Tungsten lighting is a form of incandescent illumination that incorporates pressurized halogen gas. Tungsten lamps operate much like the filament-based incandescent light bulbs that were, until very recently, the bulb of choice for home lamps and lighting fixtures. Likewise, tungsten lamps were the most common lighting instrument for most of filmmaking history, only recently ceding ground to more energy-efficient options like LED lights.
