The Kyoto Prize in Advanced Technology is awarded once a year by the Inamori Foundation. It is one of three Kyoto Prize categories; the others are the Kyoto Prize in Basic Sciences and the Kyoto Prize in Arts and Philosophy. The first Kyoto Prize in Advanced Technology was awarded to Rudolf E. Kálmán the creator of modern control and system theory. It is widely regarded as the most prestigious award available in fields which are traditionally not honored with a Nobel Prize.
