About this deal

It consisted of a disc with various steps as well as a segment with nine cogs. When it was turned once round, it passed the setting cylinders, on each of which a certain rod pushed the corresponding step outwards, whereupon the cog-segment of the adapting segment engaged a cog-wheel of the result mechanism and thus rotated the numbered disc to the correct digit in the corresponding window.

This is because the idea of the calculating mechanism was proposed by Leupold, the construction was by Braun, and the actual manufacturing was made by Vayringe. Remarkably, through the years, Rams remained as provocative and questioning a product design leader as ever, in his quest for “good design”. ’I think that good designers must always be avant-gardists, always one step ahead of the times,’ he said in a speech to the Braun supervisory board in 1980. ‘They should – and must – question everything generally thought to be obvious. They must have an intuition for people’s changing attitudes. For the reality in which they live, for their dreams, their desires, their worries, their needs, their living habits. They must also be able to assess realistically the opportunities and bounds of technology.’ Rams has always relied heavily on sketching to bring to life his design ideas, preferring a line drawing approach that he developed during his school days. Despite the advances of computer software and the widespread use of digital technologies by designers, Rams has resisted using these devices, favouring his sketching by hand method.

One of my favorite Braun archive pieces given its impact. Rams’ sensitivity for form and function is really mind-blowing, the more you take it in. Still trying to work out how he came up with the dots. The TP1 Record player (1959) I used to have this as a little one. To me, this was my iPhone, which today's kids already navigate well at a young age. It felt very intuitive, I guess because of its straightforward and clear design. Didn't help me much in math class, though. Sir Terence Conran has had more impact than any other designer of his generation on everyday life in contemporary Britain though a series of parallel careers.This looks like a big version of my first MD player. It probably is as technically advanced, too, considering vinyl is alive and MD is dead. Seems like an unexpectedly very contemporary post-millennium item.

This simple calculator is considered one of the most successful designs produced by Braun when Rams served as Chief Design Officer. It's exemplary of Ram's philosophy 'less but better'. The interface is cleverly colour-coded for ease of use, with the eye drawn to the yellow 'equals' button, the most frequently used function. Turning the crank adds the entered number to the result mechanism (12-place with complementary numbers shown), and the result is shown in the windows along the periphery of the cover (the silver-plated part). The setting mechanism can be rotated with respect to the result mechanism so that both multiplication and division are possible. The machine also featured a single-digit revolution counter. The German mechanic, constructor and optician Anton (Antonius) Braun (see biography of Anton Braun) (1686-1728) from Möhringen (Baden-Württemberg, Germany), was appointed in 1724 as a mechanician and optician of the imperial court in Vienna, Austria. In the same 1724 he started to design a calculating machine for the purposes of the court. Anton Braun had a son in 1708 – Anton Braun Jr. He also became a skillful instrument maker, optician, and watchmaker like his father, and made a copy of one of his calculating machines, still preserved in Technischen Museum, Wien. When he arrived at Braun, Rams applied his architectural skills to the design of exhibition sets and offices, but became increasingly interested in products. Rams wrote his account of his early years at Braun in an open letter to Erwin Braun in 1979. In the letter, he details his introduction to design and his experience working among talented and engaging people at Braun. Initially Rams worked on a number of different projects for the company, from being involved on a project for a new showroom pavilion for the medical department, to working on Erwin Braun’s own house in Königstein. During this time he got an in depth understanding of how the company operated, developing good relationship with the various teams at Braun.Develops the modular Atelier 1 series with L1 speakers separated from the receiver unit, an innovation that soon became an industry standard

Speaking of college entrance exams, nothing could be worse than your calculator running out of power before you finish your test. Calculators are battery-powered, solar-powered, or a hybrid of both—and a few higher-end models are rechargeable. We recommend battery-powered calculators for most people, though simple four-function options can last for a while on the solar panel alone. How We SelectedAnton Braun returned to Vienna in 1723 and in 1724 he was appointed for the position of Kammeropticus et Mathematicus at the Austrian court, due to his outstanding precision mechanical and mathematical skills. Three years later, he sat down as a candidate to be the Imperial instrument maker. He won the title against an impressive number of competitors. He presented to the Emperor his advanced calculating machine, which he constructed in 1724 and which was already in use at the imperial court. Imperial Instrument Maker Anton Braun is known to have invented one of the first calculating machines which inspired future calculators like Arithmometer . Circular Sundial

Ada Lovelace – Complete Biography, History and Inventions: One of the most prominent figures in mathematics, Ada Lovelace did some advance work on the Analytical Engine. Generally speaking, elementary and middle school students are best served by scientific calculators; high school students probably need graphing calculators; and professionals who work with numbers should look for accounting calculators. Battery Life and Power SourceBraun was born on April 22, 1686 in Möhringen an der Donau (bei Tuttlingen), a small town on the upper Danube, in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. He was the first child from Hans Jacobus Braun’s second marriage to Franziska Riestler. Hans Jacobus Braun had 3 daughters and 2 sons from his first marriage. I love Rams’ use of color, accents, and materials with archive pieces like the ET 33 calculator. So much restraint in terms of aesthetics but in the same vein, bright and bold decisions like the yellow "=" button. The gloss on the button faces is magic. The Series 9 Shaver (2019)
