​KL-1 The KL-1 was a soviet design, and also the impetus for this gallery. It's actually just a slide rule, but in a round form that is about the size of a pocketwatch. By sliding the face and a needle a user can multiply, divide, and perform a number of trigonometric functions.  I purchased one online, and it's a really cool device. It's tricky to use, but when I get a calculation correct it's exciting. It also reminds of the alethiometer from The Golden Compass, which definitely isn't the r Design, Mechanical Computer, Slide Rule, Slide, Trigonometric Functions, Analog, Soviet

Curta The Curta looks like one of two things: either a pepper mill or a piece of camera equipment. It doesn't scream "calculator," yet that's exactly what it is. Numbers are input using slides on the side of the device, and a lever on the top is spun to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.  The designer, Curt Herzstark, actually finalized the design while being held in Buchenwald concentration camp during WWII. After the camp was liberated he found a factory to manufacture it, and the Curta l Electronic Products, Computer History Museum, Mechanical Art, Mechanic, Objects, Pocket

Chadwick Magic Brain The Chadwick Magic Brain is a great example of a consumer calculating device from the era before electronics. It's a purely mechanical device that uses a stylus to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.  The stylus would be placed in a slot next to the number the operator was working with, then slid up or down to add the number to the machine. It's surprisingly simple to operate, and it was surprisingly cheap too: it cost $0.98 in 1962, which would make it a little less tha Vintage, Retro, Coded Message, Computer, The Golden Compass

​The Z1 The Z1 was the first computer in the world to use boolean logic and floating point numbers as the basis of its programming. It was, unfortunately, destroyed during bombing of Berlin in World War II, and its construction plans were lost as well.  Programs were punched into 35mm film, and the whole machine was built by its designer, Konrad Zuse, using thin metal sheets and a jigsaw. Zuse reconstructed the Z1 in 1986, recutting the nearly 20,000 parts by hand again.  Image: http://comp Programming, Ww2, Berlin, War, 35mm Film, World War Ii

Multitouch screens Yes, touchscreens have been around in film and TV for a long time, but it's Star Trek The Next Generation that first gave us the equivalent of the modern multitouch ones we all use now.  Multitouch technology was functioning as early as 1982, when researchers at the University of Toronto developed a system that used a camera behind a piece of frosted glass. It operated based on detecting dark spots where fingers made contact with the surface. Hardly as advanced as TNG's Oku Star Trek, Star Trek Data, Star Trek Beyond, Star Trek Enterprise, Star Trek Voyager, Star Trek Tos, Spacecraft, Uss Enterprise D, Star Wreck
