The Oregon Scientific History

Oregon Scientific was established in 1989 as an entrepreneurial start up in Portland, Oregon. A place known for its high technology capabilities and its pioneering spirit. The company's objective was to create and market products providing access to personal information electronically. The first concept developed by the Oregon Scientific's team was a state-of-art personal information manager - Axxess. (Utilizing the emerging touch screen technology, the product offered the best technical solution to personal users but the price was considered too high by consumers entering this rapidly forming new segment.) Oregon Scientific sought lower-cost but high quality manufacturing in the Pacific Rim and found a partner in Integrated Display Technology. IDT, a leader in Liquid Crystal Display technology and Oregon Scientific formed a joint venture to redevelop and re-launch the Axxess product. At the same time Oregon Scientific began a sales and marketing campaign of several of IDT's time keeping and weather related products which had then a limited market presence in the USA.
Although Axxess never found the success that the original engineers and marketers of Oregon Scientific had hoped, the company began to build a solid niche with unique products directed toward the technology hungry" early-adopters."

Working with companies like The Sharper Image™, Hammacher Schlemmer™, Neiman Marcus and other specialty stores around the country Oregon Scientific began to develop a loyal following of customers and retail clients. Today Oregon Scientific's product mix is grounded in a unique mix of value, functionality and superb design.

Throughout the next few years Oregon Scientific and IDT began to cooperate more closely on development and in 1997 Oregon Scientific became a wholly owned subsidiary of IDT. As IDT established in the early 90's a network of Sales & Marketing Subsidiaries in all key European markets, it became clear that the Oregon Scientific brand had a global potential. In 1994, IDT launched its Oregon Scientific line of products across Europe and later in Japan.

Never losing site of its entrepreneurial roots, Oregon Scientific continued to develop a stream of innovating products. The first hand held All Hazards/Weather Radio with automatic emergency activation the first precisely accurate ExactSet™ alarm clock that synchronizes itself to many of the world greatest timepieces - like the U.S. Atomic Clock the first Nightfinder travel alarm with a patented automatic night light and the first personal desktop weather forecasting instrument that provides an automatic graphical view to your local weather.

Innovations like these define Oregon Scientific as one of the leading designers and worldwide marketers of award-winning personal electronics in the consumer electronics industry.

Exciting, leading-edge technology coupled with fluid design is the hallmark of every Oregon Scientific product. Offering multiple families of products-weather forecasting/environmental monitoring, timekeeping, electronic information, electronic toys/games and lifestyle products.
