A form of mechanical computer introduced in the 1880s, the integrator dramatically reduced the time it took to calculate a ship`s stability and thus promised to make the application of science to shipbuilding a practical possibility. This J. Amsler-Laffon Mechanical Integrator is on display in the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.
