Collins to build inertial display system in Cedar Rapids
Collins will manufacture and assemble the control display unit in Cedar Rapids with first units due by May 1981 and full delivery by 1985. The system supports selective data for close air support and can integrate with Navstar GPS. Collins has prototypes for eight host vehicles and seeks a 1983 GPS prime-supplier award, with Coast Guard orders already placed. Civilian use is considered unlikely due to cost and complexity.

Suit ties computer services to lawyers in Linn County
A $3 million lawsuit filed in Linn District Court by Impact Data Processing accuses Joseph C. Johnston and Data Law Inc. of breaching a contract that made Impact's computerized services the sole property of the firm. The suit claims the Lexus system mimics Impact's services and seeks injunctions, $1 million in actual damages, and $2 million in punitive damages. Johnston says the referenced firm dropped Impact's system years ago and calls the case a marketplace controversy.
