Multi-million dollar production facilities behind $109 transceivers..
ReplyDeleteHere in New Zealand, in the late '90s at Massey University (Palmerstoin North) I completed construction of, and began production in, a mini version. The project was abandoned and it was sold to Sri Lanka (I.E. Technics) out from under my feet, with most of Technology transferred to Albany campus (and then swamped by Auckland Institute of Technology). SHAME! It was the valid core of a prototyping (perhaps even small-scale production) plant. I've not heard of its fate following the tsunami - it hit that area hard. :( There were some very clued-up folks there!
ReplyDeleteFascinating!
