    SIGGRAPH 1984

    The Midwest introduction of the PERCEPTOR, a high performance RS 232 compatible 3-dimensional Graphics Digitizer and Data Acquisition Device. We will also be demonstrating our full 2 and 3 dimensional microprocessor-based CAD graphics system for the mechanical design, architectural medical and instrumentation markets. Existing applications include mechanical design, molecular modeling, architectural drawings, 3-D modeling, 3-D digitizing and measurement. MCS 3-Dimensional space Graphics Tablet and the new Perceptor provide interactive 3-Dimensional dig i tizing capabilities. Software for IBM, Apple, and many lookalikes CADKEY-MCS new software package provides advanced construction techniques, hidden line removal, and significantly enhanced 3-D capabilities.

    SIGGRAPH 1983

    Micro Control Systems, Inc., located in booth 677, will be featuring the first 3-D CAD System for microcomputers (IBM PC and soon the Apple II & E), the Space Tablet/Advanced Space Graphics. Its capabilities include: drafting — automatically dimensions angles and lengths;color — fills in a two-dimensional area on screen; output — to printer and plotters; editing; transformations — scaling, rotating, moving, “rubber banding”. It draws rings, mirror-images and arc. Applications include architecture, engineering and medicine. College students are using the Space Tablet/Advanced Space Graphics both as a conceptual tool to acquaint themselves with computer-aided design and as an analytical tool in instances such as molecular modeling, cell structure analysis, mathematics or medical mapping.
