You just read about Nokia. One of the companies whose work it now carries:
Infinera built Coherent optical transport, photonic integration and DCI. What became of it?
Infinera brought Coherent optical transport, photonic integration and DCI to Optical. That work was distinctive enough to lead to its acquisition by Nokia for US$2.3B. The standalone name now passes into the archive — but the team and technology continue inside Nokia today. One of 430 names here whose work outlived the company.
You just read about All. A technology from the archive that helped get us here:
Google/Alphabet Project Loon served 2011–2021. What ultimately replaced it?
Google/Alphabet Project Loon solar-powered balloons drifting in the stratosphere (~20 km), steering by rising and falling into different wind layers, relaying LTE from ground stations to phones far below. Its job passed to Unit economics — but the problem it solved, and the ideas it proved, live on in what replaced it. The standard rests here in the archive. One of 198 technologies here that opened a door and then held it for the next.
