This new exhibition covers a period from the late 60s to the present day, with chapters relayed by the specialist press: particular emphasis is placed on Marielle Stamm, a pioneer of computer journalism in Switzerland.
The exhibition begins with the first developments, from calculators to the first mice, by the Laboratoire de Micro-Informatique (LAMI) team led by EPFL professor Jean-Daniel Nicoud.
Over the years, Logitech mice have conquered the world and contributed to its reputation. We present a selection of the brand's most emblematic mice.
You'll then discover one of the richest collections of SMAKY microcomputers, from the earliest prototypes to the most recent models, marketed by Epsitec SA in the 80s and 90s. This is an opportunity to try out SMAKY's flagship software or the SMAKY for schools, with its videogame exercises created by teachers.
One section of the exhibition is dedicated to electronics clubs in French-speaking Switzerland, which have had a significant impact on the development of computing in our region.
A recreational section features Daniel Roux's video games, from the oldest to the latest: BLUPI IS BACK.
René Sommer's Nimmer, one of Switzerland's first electronic games, is also on display.
Many other surprises await you!
This exhibition and the expanding smaky.ch website complement each other to offer you a lively approach to the SMAKY adventure.
For an even richer experience, don't hesitate to sign up for one of our guided tours.
