Ngexesha apho imboni yekhompyutheni kunye nevidiyo yemidlalo yayizaliswe ngokugcwele ngamadoda aseCaucasian, uJerry Lawson wayengumvelisi. Wadala enye yeengqungquthela zokudlala imidlalo yevidiyo ye-cartridge (i-Fairchild Channel F), eyenzelwe enye yezinto zokuqala zokudlala zemali (i- Demolition Derby ), yayiyiNtloko yeVideooft, umvelisi ozimelayo wokuqala kwi- Atari 2600 , kunye neMelika yaseMelika yokuqala kwimboniso yemidlalo yemidlalo ukufezekisa okufezekileyo.
Igama: Jerry Lawson
Ukuzalwa: 1940
Imbali kuMbali weMidlalo: Injineli yeMidlalo yeMidlalo yeMidlalo yaseMnyama kunye noMyili weMidlalo, ihamba phambili kwi-Fairchild Channel Channel ye-console yemidlalo yevidiyo, eyenzelwe kwaye yavelisa umdlalo weDemolition Derby, umdlalo we-Videosoft.
Jerry Lawson & # 39; Ubomi bokuqala
Ukukhula kwindodana yentsapho efumana imali engaphantsi kwiprojekthi yezindlu eJamaica, iNew York ayizange ibuyele umfana oselula uJerry Lawson. Unina, wayezimisele ukuqinisekisa ukuba unyana wakhe waya ezikolweni eziphezulu ezifumanekayo kwaye wafumana imfundo efanelekileyo kakhulu, kwaye wayesebenza njengenhloko ye-PTA. Uyise, umdeli omdala, wayephethe i-apatite ehlaselayo yenzululwazi kunye neteknoloji, eyadlulisela kuyo unyana wayo.
Njengomfana osemtsha uJerry wayeseyinto engapheliyo kunye ne-tinkerer, ukufumana ilayisense yomsakazo we ham kwaye ayisebenzise ukwakha isiteshini sakhe somsakazo esitokisini ekamelweni lakhe, kwakunye nokuthengisa nokuthengisa ii-walkie-talkies.
Ubunjineli Indlela Yakhe kuFlachild
Emva kokuya kwiKholeji yaseQueens kunye neSixeko saseNew York, u-Lawson waqalisa umsebenzi wobunjineli, esebenza kwezobuchwepheshe obusakhulayo kunye neenkampani ezifana ne-Federal Electric, iGrumman Aircraft kunye ne-PRD Electronics. Ekugqibeleni, wafika e-Fairchild Semiconductor ngo-1970 esebenzisana ne-semiconductors yabo epheleleyo kunye nabancinci.
Ngethuba leminyaka yokuqala yokuqala kunye noFredchild, uJerry waqala ukubandakanya nekhompyutheni yekhompyutheni, njengoko iimfuno zakhe zakhula wajoyina i-Homebrew Computer Club kwaye wadibana nabasunguli be- Atari , uNolan Bushnell kunye noTed Dabney, kunye noonjiniyela emva kwePong , Alan Alcorn .
I-Fairchild Isiteshi F - Imvelaphi ye-Trailblazer yeMidlalo yeVidiyo
UNolan noTed babonise uJerry indalo yabo, iComputer Space , yokuqala ye-arinade ye-currency-op op-game, emva koko uJerry waqala ukukrazula ekhaya, ukuyila nokuzakhela umshini we-arcade, u- Demolition Derby , usebenzisa i-microprocessors esuka ku-Fairchild.
Xa i-Fairchild efunyenwe ngendalo yakhe yamagqabi bambeka ephethe iprojekthi yekhoni yevidiyo ye-console ye-video, ekugqibeleni ibe yiFlachild Channel F, i-console yokuqala ye-ROM ye-cartridge video game.
Jerry Lawson kunye ne-TV POW
Ukongeza kokuba yinhloko yeprojekthi yeFlachild Channel kunye nokuyila izinto ezininzi ezibonakalayo, u-Lawson, kunye neqela lakhe basebenze ekuwandiseni iinkqubo zamandla ngaphezu kwebhola lebholaji.
Enye yeendlela ezahlukileyo zezobuchwephesha zeThane F ukuba u-Lawson kunye neqela lakhe bahlanganisana kwakuyi- TV Pow , yokuqala kunye nomdlalo wevidiyo kuphela owenziwe ngethelevishini yokusasazwa.
Njengoko kubonakaliswe kubantwana bendawo kubonisa phakathi kweemifanekiso, umncedisi uza kuba nabadlali banokungena kwi- TV Pow , ebonisa umdlalo wokupakisha we-Channel F, kunye nenjongo enkulu ekujoliswe kuyo. Xa iinqanawa zeentshaba zihamba phambi kobubanzi, umdlali uya kumemeza esithi "POW" ukutshisa kunye nokubethelwa.
Emva kweFalchild Channel F
Emva kokushiya iFortchild, u-Lawson waqalisa umdlalo womdlalo wevidiyo, i-Videosoft, ngenjongo yokudala imidlalo kunye nezixhobo zobuchwepheshe kwi- Atari 2600 . I-Videosoft iphelile ekudaleni i-cartridge enye, "i- Color Bar Generator ", eyenzelwe ukulungelelanisa umbala wakho womabonwakude kwaye uhlengahlengise imifanekiso engezantsi kunye neyobubanzi.
Namhlanje u-Lawson ujongela umhlalaphantsi ofanelekileyo kwaye uya kwiindawo zokudlala zemidlalo kunye neendibano njengezivakalisi zesithethi. Ukususela ekuqalekeni komsebenzi wakhe kuze kube namhlanje, uhlaziyekile xa edibana nabantu abaninzi abaye beva ngaye, kodwa xa behlangana naye emntwini baneliswe yinto yokuba bamnyama. Njengoko wathetha kwintetho yo-2009 no-Benjamin Edwards kwiwebhusayithi yeVintage Computing kunye neGaming "Ewe andiyi kuhamba ndixelele wonke umntu ndingumnyama. Ndiyayenza nje umsebenzi wam, uyazi?"
