The
NAVI is the most commonly used
computer in serial
experiments Lain. These
computers consist of two types
of NAVI's, the desktop type, and
handheld all of these computers
connected to the Wired.
NAVI
is most likely to stand for
"Knowledge Navigator."
In 1987, a book titled the
Odyssey by John Sculley,
described the Knowledge
Navigator. (John Sculley was the
CEO of Apple). John Sculley envisioned
the Knowledge Navigator as the
Apple computer of the 21 century.
His idea was to allow people to
communicate from anywhere in the
world, you would be connected to
a vast shared information.
In
1987 he envisioned that his
knowledge Navigator would be
suited for multimedia
applications, utilizing large,
high-definition, flat-display
screens to support text,
full-color, graphics, and
computer generated animations.
It would also feature
high-fidelity sound, speech
synthesis, and speech
recognition.
Most
of Sculley's ideas for his
Knowledge Navigator would be integrated
into the Newton, Apple's
unsuccessful personal digital
assistant line. |
