The story of Polaroid is the story of Dr Land. The Land camera was named in his honor. Dr Land studied vision and optics. For example, some of his early experiments defined how vision works - the various parts of a brain that process vision differently.
Polaroid did virtually no innovation in the past 20 years. Its last innovation was ultrasonic range finding developed in conjunction with Texas Instruments. It may take that long for stifled innovation to eventually affect spread sheets. Where are these bean counters that 20 years ago started Polaroid's demise? Rich?
