Abstract
A sketch of some of the developments masterminded by Uki Helava during his years with Bendix Research Laboratories (1967-79) and with his ow n company, Helava Associates, Inc., underlines the significance and br eadth of his contribution. Although many of the leading edge developme nts were responses to US government contracts, the initial impetus beh ind the formation of Helava Associates was to supply to the commercial market-place and subsequent links with Leica are similarly aimed; thu s the practicality of many of the developments is demonstrable.
