AFAIK the digi-comp ii and dr. nim toys, both invented by my grandpa, were the first to use the physical toggles/marble architecture. They were very influential in inspiring a generation of computer scientists, and since these days there's so little focus on fundamentals of computing it's great to see a modern twist on it! Good timing since my kids are almost old enough to be exposed to this
- smoyer 9y agoDon't leave us hanging like that ... do you have anything interesting to add to the very minimal wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digi-Comp_I https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digi-Comp_I). I would imagine you have some great stories!
