Date: 1966

Not every innovation in health technology was connected directly to a patient. The LINC-8 from Digital Equipment Corporation proved important for biomedical laboratories processing data from their experiments. Based on a previous design from Lincoln Labs, the LINC-8 incorporated both the LINC processor and PDP-8 processor unit. DEC joined Hewlett-Packard in 2002.
