Chromatics Inc. was a color graphics display manufacturer based in Tucker, Georgia.〔''InfoWorld'' 1982 Vol.4 week 23 p5 "Chromatics, a color-graphic-display manufacturer ..."〕 Their systems predated the personal computer era of inexpensive graphics displays, and were typically used as peripheral devices, connected to a mainframe or minicomputer. In some configurations, a Chromatics graphics terminal could be used as a stand-alone workstation, with disk drives and an operating system. Chromatics pursued the higher performance end of the graphics marketplace, including such applications as flight simulation and air traffic control. They sold many systems into military and government contracts. Several configurations received Tempest certification. Others were ruggedized to withstand shock and vibration. ==History== The company was founded in 1976 by Terry Hughey, who left Intelligent Systems Corporation (another manufacturer of graphics terminals) to focus on higher-end systems.〔Jakobson, Cathryn.
