• 1971 - The Invention of the Microprocessor

  In 1971 Intel created the worlds first microrocessor, a complete, general purpose computor in a single chip! They called it the Intel 4004.

  This small piece of technology may seem like it doesn't do much, especially when driving, yet in fact, it actually enhances your driving experience. 

  This advanced piece of onboard computer technology allows you to have greater vehicle safety, lower fuel consumption, lower engine pollution and higher automotive reliability. It's able to determine the optimum fuel/air ratio in response to engine temperature, engine speed and load conditions.

  Without the MicroProcessor our cars may be very different to what we are used to today!
