UNIVAC is one of the earliest commercial
computers and was easily the most famous
computer of the 1950s. This film, produced
between 1950 and 1952, shows how the UNIVAC
computer was used in business, defense and by
the census. The film shows several of the
important portions of the UNIVAC system at
work, including the high-speed printer, the
UNISERVO tape drive, the UNITYPER, card
readers and the mercury delay line tanks that
served as main memory. The programming
process is fully discussed and a business
problem is demonstrated. These films served a
promotional film as well as a way to
demystify computers to the average person.
