The system was announced in 1970 and first shipped in 1971. It was a 16-bit machine and one of the first made by IBM to use novel semiconductor memory, instead of magnetic core memory conventional at that date. The System/7 was designed to address the needs of specific "real-time" markets which required collecting and reacting to input and output (I/O) from analog devices (e.g. temperature sensors, industrial control devices).  For example, AMC used it to measure the emissions of new production automobiles. A version was also created that made the navigation of large ships safer and more efficient, by reducing the amount of data that bridge personnel needed to correlate while improving how it is presented. It likely had other, classified military uses.The System/7 product line was withdrawn from marketing on March 20, 1984. 0:36 - 1:00: Modern security systems can secure large complexes with minimal manpower, detecting unauthorized entries and dispatching security forces efficiently. 1:00 - 1:47: The same technology used in security systems also operates machinery, such as paper machines and plastic injection molding presses, ensuring high-quality production and operational efficiency. 1:47 - 2:03: Introduction of IBM's System 7, a powerful system designed to work in dynamic environments with a cycle time measured in billionths of a second. 2:10 - 2:57: Discussion on productivity growth and the role of technology in enhancing productivity through better management, faster reaction to change, and improved data access. 3:00 - 4:17: System 7's application in operational environments, monitoring and controlling machines, and guiding operators with real-time data to improve productivity and reduce scrap. 4:37 - 5:02: System 7's capability to execute nearly 2 million instructions per second, capturing data accurately and solving problems in a planned manner. 5:02 - 6:18: Flexibility of System 7 to grow with business needs, starting as a standalone system and expanding to integrate with larger IBM computers for comprehensive data management. 6:18 - 7:03: System 7's processor module and input/output modules designed for industrial environments, providing easy system growth and versatile interfaces for analog and digital signals. 7:03 - 8:42: System 7's ability to simplify data capture and command execution, assigning priority levels to signals and improving inventory control through accurate data collection. 8:48 - 9:19: Versatility of System 7 hardware in capturing and analyzing data from various sensors, leading to better packaging and testing procedures. 9:19 - 10:01: System 7's adaptability to changing business needs, with a large selection of system programs to help generate application programs and reduce programming tasks. 10:01 - 11:13: IBM's commitment to providing useful application packages and productivity aids, along with education and engineering services to support System 7 users. 11:13 - 12:34: System 7's rental options and around-the-clock engineering service, designed to decrease project costs and increase return on investment. 12:34 - 14:49: Historical achievement of IBM and Consolidated Film Industries in improving film color balancing using System 7, highlighting the system's impact on various industries. Motion picture films don't last forever; many have already been lost or destroyed. For almost two decades, we've worked to collect, scan and preserve the world as it was captured on 35mm, 16mm and 8mm movies -- including home movies, industrial films, and other non-fiction. If you have endangered films you'd like to have scanned, or wish to donate celluloid to Periscope Film so that we can share them with the world, we'd love to hear from you. Contact us via the weblink below. This film is part of the Periscope Film LLC archive, one of the largest historic military, transportation, and aviation stock footage collections in the USA. Entirely film backed, this material is available for licensing in 24p HD, 2k and 4k.
