The NORD-1 was a 16-bit minicomputer by Norsk Data, designed in 1967. The first machines were delivered to customers in 1968. It was the first commercially available computer made in Norway.
The NORD-1 could have from 4K to 64K 16-bit words of core memory. The NORD-1 came equipped as standard with floating point hardware support. It did not initially have support for virtual memory, but VM was added as an option by Norsk Data in 1969.
- 16-bit address
 - 32-bit floating point
 - 16 interrupt levels
 - Core memory
 
In 1969 a NORD-1 was used in the world's first radar-based anti-collision system on the Wilh. Wilhelmsen ship M/S Taimyr.
