Description

The HES software was distributed without charge by IBM and used by researchers and NASA. The photo shows Brown undergraduate student Chris Braun using HES on an IBM 2250 Model IV Graphics Display Unit, including lightpen and programmed function keyboard, channel coupled to Brown's IBM 360 mainframe.
