Autonetics
Division of North American Aviation, Inc., however, has announced
a new microminiaturized
computer in late stages of development. This unit appears to have a
computing capacity almost as great as that we have proposed in 72 cu
ft, but in a package of about 0.3 cu ft--and, at a comparable cost. In
retrospect, the designs described in ODC-VII and -VIII are now somewhat
out of date, in light of the microminiature developments of the past
year.
