Xerox only realized its mistake in the early 1980s, after the Macintosh revolutionized the PC market via its bitmap display and the mouse-centered interface. Both of these were inspired by the Alto. [25] The Xerox Star series was a relative commercial success, but it came too late.
Xerox was founded in 1906 in Rochester, New York, as the Haloid Photographic Company. [11] It manufactured photographic paper and equipment. In 1938, Chester Carlson, a physicist working independently, invented a process for printing images using an electrically charged photoconductor-coated metal plate [12] and dry powder "toner".
Windows Fax and Scan is an integrated faxing and scanning application introduced in Windows Vista and included in the Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate Windows Vista editions as the replacement for the Fax Console of Windows XP; it is available in all versions of Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 (x86/x64) and Windows 11 (x64), [1] but not on ARM64 versions of Windows 10 and Windows 11.
The Xerox Star workstation, officially named Xerox Star 8010 Information System, is the first commercial personal computer to incorporate technologies that have since become standard in personal computers, including a bitmapped display, a window-based graphical user interface, icons, folders, mouse (two-button), Ethernet networking, file servers, print servers, and email.
Fujifilm Business Innovation Corporation (Japanese: 富士フイルムビジネスイノベーション株式会社), formerly known as Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd., is a Japanese company specializing in the development, production, and sale of xerographic and document-related products and services across the Asia-Pacific region.
The Xerox 820 Information Processor is an 8-bit desktop computer sold by Xerox in the early 1980s. The computer runs under the CP/M operating system and uses floppy disk drives for mass storage. [ 1 ]
A Bell XH-40, a prototype of the UH-1 and Bell 204. Bell designed its Model 204 in response to a 1955 United States Army requirement for a utility helicopter. The 204 was a giant step forward in helicopter design, being one of the first to be powered by a turboshaft.
Schematic of a z-scan setup. In nonlinear optics z-scan technique is used to measure the non-linear index n 2 (Kerr nonlinearity) and the non-linear absorption coefficient Δα via the "closed" and "open" methods, respectively. As nonlinear absorption can affect the measurement of the non-linear index, the open method is typically used in ...
