That means PARC will actively work with many parties to improve the product, providing the best user experience. “We are always looking for partners who can bring technology to market,” Kurtoglu said. In the past, PARC was primarily working independently or solely helped by Xerox, but the current trend of PARC is to collaborate with anyone to realize the idea.
XEROX NOTETAKER PORTABLE
This is considered to be the place to transfer ideas for him to create Lisa with Macintosh, the computer controlled by mouse and graphical interface. While there, he worked on various projects including the NoteTaker, a portable Smalltalk machine, and wrote the initial Dorado Smalltalk microcode for. In 1979, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs visited PARC. It built one of the first portable computers in the form of the 1978 Xerox NoteTaker. Over the past 50 years, it has witnessed the birth of many of the technologies we still use today. It proposed the concept of Ethernet networks to create local computer networks. Finally, the Internet of Things platform helps technology devices interact with each other through the Internet. To serve the needs of home manufacturing, PARC also studies 3D printing technology using materials such as liquid metal to shorten production time, save costs but be more efficient than metal powders. If in the past, making computers easy to access users was the goal of PARC, now their mission is to help users access to artificial intelligence. To develop this technology, PARC has built an artificial intelligence (AI) system with the help of Xerox, combining natural language processing systems to create automation tools. Specifically, the computer will make suggestions based on the user’s habits, even predicting and handling in advance the tasks that the user can perform. One of them is a smart user interface instead of a graphical interface.
Now, PARC focuses on creating tools that help improve productivity every day. 8 of 21 Eyetracker This only looks like something out of 'A Clockwork Orange.' It's actually a.Larry Tesler, the “father” of copy and paste content on computers, who died in February also worked at PARC.Īfter 50 years of creating the “office of the future,” Kurtoglu said that by 2020, PARC’s mission will change. PARC is also the workplace of many “legendary” figures in the technology village. The graphical interface and the laser printer were developed by Xerox PARC.
