From 1962 to 1964, SRI led the development of a real-time communications system for the Scandinavian Airline System (SAS) to process passenger reservations and check-in. The project resulted in new hardware and software that IBM took to other airlines and to banks, department stores, and other industries.
Intuitive’s da Vinci 5 system represents a major leap in robotic-assisted medicine. It all started at SRI, which continues to advance teleoperation technologies.
SRI-managed QED-C’s annual report on quantum trends captures an industry accelerating rapidly from technical promise toward major global impact.
By synthesizing carbon-absorbing aerogels in microgravity, SRI research will give us a rare glimpse into how these materials could be radically improved.
