As many of you know, 2023 is the 20th anniversary year for CNA. To celebrate, we are hosting an exclusive showcase of original artworks that you can discover each month, accompanied by anecdotes that have marked the history of Calypso's development.
This month, we are showcasing an Egyptian hieroglyph, which demonstrates that Calypso technology is so practical, universal and easy to use that it seems like it has endured since ancient times.
If you needed proof that the Egyptians discovered everything… or almost everything! Including Calypso?
March’s anecdote: The Walker through the Wall
We are pleased to share with you a video we first published in 1994, demonstrating how contactless technology worked at the time – a predecessor to the Calypso technology we use today!
The video is based on the novel “Le Passe-muraille” by Marcel Aymé.
