Selenia Gp-16

The Selenia Gp-16 was a general purpose minicomputer designed by the Italian company Selenia of STET group.

It was followed by an upgraded version called Gp-160.

The design took place in Rome during the mid-sixties under the supervision of Saverio Rotella, when the production was carried in Fusaro (Naples) in the second half of that decade.

[1][2][3] The most known uses were in control tower in airports, as done in Venice;[4] a modified upgraded version was used in Gruppi Speciali of CSELT, the second electromechanical phone switch in Europe.

[6] However, it never reached a large diffusion because of a small market push from its producing company.
