Demonstration: Z3 - Konrad Zuse's relay computer June
Overview
Intro
Experience the replica of the first digital computer in computer history. Presented by the builder Christof Traber. Always on the last Saturday of the month.
The Z3
The origin of all computers: the Z3 by Konrad Zuse (1910-1995). Developed during the Second World War, it was the first computer ever to be able to perform computing tasks electromechanically, store data and carry out initial programming.
But that's not all: Zuse did not use the decimal system, as was common at the time, but the binary number system.
The replica
The Swiss computer scientist Dr. Christof Traber built a replica of the Z3 based on Zuse's patent specification from 1941. His replica can be seen today in the Enter Technikwelt and is currently probably the only fully functional Z3 that is regularly demonstrated in public.
