- The Jacquard loom was created to simplify the process of manufacturing textiles. This was the first time that binary code was used.
1924
- The company IBM (Internal Business Machines) was created and was the first American company that focused on developing technology machines.
1936
- The Turing machine is a mathematical model of hypothetical computing machine that was invented by Alan Turing. This was the first machine that was able to do mathematical calculations.
1942
- The Antanasoff-Berry Computer was the first electronic computer. This computer was able to perform 30 simultaneous operations. This was basically an improved Turing machine.
1946
- The ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) was "complete Turing computer." It was able to solve "a large class of numerical problems through reprogramming."
1959
- The COBOL / FORTRAN is a computer programming machine that was intended for business use.
1959
- The Integrated circuit is a set of electronic circuits on a semiconductor material. An integrated chip could serve as an "amplifier, oscillator, timer, counter, computer memory or microprocessor."
1963
- Ivan Sutherland developed Sketchpad. It used a light pen to create and manipulate objects in engineering drawings and coordinated graphics.
1966
- The DRAM (Dynamic Random-Access Memory) is a piece of technology that stored data within a tiny unit within an integrated circuit. Basically, this improved storage on technological devices.
