Intel gave itself a pat on the back Tuesday, unveiling a list of 10 "Hall of Fame" innovations that came from developments in the company's lab.
Justin Rattner, CTO and vice president of Intel Labs, hosted an event in San Francisco on Tuesday celebrating the 10th anniversary of Intel's Research & Development arm and highlighted the top 10 technology developments to come out of the department.
The developments paved the way for greater malware protection, faster connection speeds and early detection of viruses.
This year's presentations also showed how tech can be used to tackle everyday problems, such as driving in rainy and snowy weather. Take a look at video highlights of the conference here.
Check out the gallery below to see the top 10 innovations listed on Intel Lab's Hall of Fame and how those inventions impacted technology.

Intel presented its list of 10 Innovations that came from its Intel Lab, including Thunderbolt -- "Light Peak was the codename for Thunderbolt Technology and sought to move media faster and simplify connections between devices. Intel Labs drove the architecture, specifications, and initial ecosystem development. Today, Thunderbolt technology delivers 10 Gbps data transfers using a single cable to connect devices in a daisy chain," notes Intel's press statement.
Intel Labs celebrated the 10th anniversary of Research at Intel on June 26, highlighting 10 innovations that paved the way for modern technologies. Intel's low power architecture led to the development of Intel Atom Processor.
At Intel's anniversary event, the company demonstrated ideas that could innovate commuting, such as off-peak charging for electric vehicles.
"Patmos was the codename for technologies that were integrated into McAfee's DeepSAFE technology. Intel Labs created the Trusted Memory Services Layer, the key building block of DeepSAFE which provides the vantage point to detect, block and remove stealthy malware. McAfee Deep Defender product lives outside the OS and provides real-time kernel monitoring to detect and block advanced hidden threats."
"Data-parallel Extensions for JavaScript research targeted rich browser experiences, such as physics-based gaming and immersive 3D environments, applying multi-core processing to gain up to 10x performance improvements. In August 2011, Intel Labs made this technology available as an alpha Application Programming Interface (API) called River Trail. The River Trail API is now on a path to become an industry standard."
"Platform Power Management invented in Intel Labs, combines hardware power management and new power states that fundamentally changes how power is managed across the platform. Intel Power Optimizer in Haswell-based Ultrabooks are expected to achieve 20x reduction in idle power through a combination of process improvement and Platform Power Management."
"Robust Self-Healing Systems and Networks provide a framework for clients to detect integrity violations or subversion on Intel platforms. Intel Labs research allows the hosts to collaborate and detect network-wide anomalies (such as infections, attacks, etc.) and regulate itself from zero-day threats. Intel vPro technology is a set of security and manageability capabilities built into the 2nd generation Intel Core vPro processor family, Intel chipsets, and network adapters"
"Always-On, Always-Connected allows application connectivity during "Standby Mode". Intel Labs architected new platform technologies to stay connected, while reducing energy consumption. Today, with Intel Smart Connect Technology in your Ultrabook, your email, favorite apps, and social networks are continually and automatically updated even when the system is asleep."
"The Teraflops Research Processor (codenamed Polaris) was an 80-core research chip and was the first programmable processor to exceed 1 trillion floating point operations per second (Teraflops). This was followed by the Single-chip Cloud Computer (codenamed Rock Creek), a concept processor that built upon Polaris' floating point achievement by integrated more IA cores than ever before in a single chip. Intel Labs parallel computing experts, along with research chips such as these, helped to guide the development of Intel® Many Integrated Core architecture for future compute and data-intensive applications. The Intel Xeon Phi product family based on this architecture will enable scientific research, financial analysis, climate simulation, and other HPC applications. It is the first commercial single chip to achieve 1 Teraflops of sustained performance."
"The Carry Small, Live Large vision reflects on our lives and how they can be enhanced, simplified and enabled through mobile technology. Intel Labs research focused on making mobile devices smaller, smarter and context-aware. With Intel WiDi on your laptop, you can enjoy all of your personal and online content on a big screen with a simple wireless connection."
Not all of Intel's technology has been so well received. The company recently caused a stir with its plan to target advertising using facial recognition technology. Despite complaints, it plans to launch the service later this year.
Intel also launched its first smartphone in April this year with cellphone manufacturer Lava, based in India. That same month, Intel and car maker Nissan unveiled a car with a built-in "infotainment" system in the Infiniti LE.
