To be honest, I have no idea what this 1964 analog device does, nor what
any of the following means:

VARIABLE BREAKPOINTS 
TEMPERATURE COMPENSATION for THERMAL DRIFT in DIODES 
PARALLAX ADJUSTMENT 
CENTRAL SLOPE ADJUSTMENT 
SOLID STATE DESIGN 
DIRECTLY INTERCHANGEABLE with EXISTING FIXED BREAKPOINT DFG UNITS 
WIDE COMPUTING BANDWIDTH 
UNLIMITED RESOLUTION 

(Ok, my old rangefinder camera had "parallax" correction in the
viewfinder to differentiate between close and far objects.)

Anyway, this is an offering by EAI, which made analog computers.
The brochure contains detailed performance specs.
