In the late 1950s, IBM and General Motors teamed up to develop DAC-1, an early computer-aided design system completed in 1964. This system, based on an IBM 7090 mainframe and a specialized graphics terminal, enabled users to draw and manipulate images with a light pen, advancing the field of automobile design. 🚗 Imagery credits: Fred Krull, General Motors Corporation, GM Research Laboratories, Gwen Bell #cardesign #automotivetechnology #retrotech | Computer History Museum
