ECD held several other companies. Any particular reason these are not mentioned?

Two that come to mind are Ovonic Imaging Systems or OIS, later Optical Imaging Systems, which produced flat-panel, diode-switched, multi-color displays. From personal recollection, OIS entered chapter 11 and was required to fulfill certain government contracts sometime around 2000.

A second was Ovonic Synthetic Materials, Inc, or OSMIC, a maker of diffraction gratings and optics for x-ray imaging. I believe their technology is still in production by Rigaku under the Osmyx brand.
