The aspect ratio is 4:3. Projectors exist with 250, 500 or 1000 lumen light output at a scan standard of 525, 875 or 1023 lines. Optional projection lenses are available. Projectors are available for purchase, lease or rental.

SIGGRAPH 1979

CALMA is a leading international supplier of interactive computer-aided design (CAD) systems. CALMA’s unique blends of hardware and software addresses five major applications: electronic design for integrated circuits (IC’ s) and printed circuit boards (PCB’ s); mapping; three-dimensional mechanical design and drafting; and architectural engineering and construc- tion (A-E-·C). CALMA has developed software and integrated it with hardware to meet the demands of specific applications. Since the needs of each user have certain unique aspects, each system is carefully constructed and tailored to meet an individual customer’s application. CALMA supplies a turnkey system. Turnkey means a self-contained system doing a designated job without the necessity of programming by the customer. Once a CALMA system is installed on-site, the customer can begin using it. With a CALMA system, the designer enters the design directly into the system as he creates it at a video display terminal. Once the basic graphics are entered into the computer data base, the computer does most of the work. It verifies the design, draws the picture, keeps track of all the data in it, and makes it possible for the user to change any part of it simply and easily, without having to redraw the basic diagram.
