NASA Pathfinder by AeroVironment

Originally tested at Area 51 under Project HALSOL in 1983, the Pathfinder is a solar-powered UAV. Following declassification it served as a NASA test aircraft in the early 90s. The Pathfinder was the basis for both the Centurion and Helios.

Tests at Area 51 were cancelled when data concluded technology for both energy storage and photovoltaic cells were not mature enough for operational use.

HP-01 (1977)

Hewlett-Packard

The Hewlett-Packard HP-01 is a calculator watch. It was designed and manufactured by Hewlett-Packard.

The HP-01's digital display used 7 light-emitting diodes (LEDs)/digit in a 7-digit + decimal point arrangement. Introduced in 1977, at the height of the LED watch craze, it had five models: two gold-filled and three stainless.

Prices ranged from $450 & $550 for the low-end steel or gold to $850 (the equivalent of $2200 to $4200 in 2023 dollars).

HP also sold a battery replacement kit that allowed customers to change the batteries themselves. The watch uses two batteries for the display and one for the processor IC. It also comes with a ballpoint pen with a stylus on the rear end. Most of the 28 buttons on the HP-01 are recessed and designed to be depressed with a stylus stored in the band.

The production was stopped by the end of 1979.
