IrisVision was an unintended offshoot of SGI's attempts to port ...
The Mitra 15 is the successor to the CII 10010, [1] also called Iris 10, a 16-bit minicomputer released in July 1967. [2] At the time, CII also produced another 16-bit minicomputer, the CII 10020 (actually a licensed Sigma 3 from SDS) and wanted to replace them both with a new, more powerful design compatible with the latest offering of the company.
