History

La Crosse Technology introduced the radio-controlled clock, commonly (but incorrectly) called an "atomic clock" after the extremely accurate timepiece behind the radio signal it uses as a reference, into the United States commercial market in 1991.[2][5]

In 2008, the company introduced the first Internet powered home weather station.[1][6]
