Binary scaling techniques were used in the 1970s and 1980s for real-time computing that was mathematically intensive, such as [[flight simulation]] and in [[Nuclear Power Plant]] control algorithms since the late 1960s. The code was often commented with the binary scalings of the intermediate results of equations.
 
Binary scaling is still used in many [[digital signal processing|DSP]] applications and custom made microprocessors are usually based on binary scaling techniques. The Binary angular measurement is used in the [[STM32|STM32G4]] series built in [[CORDIC]] co-processors.
 
Binary scaling is currently used in the [[Discrete cosine transform|DCT]] used to compress [[JPEG]] images in utilities such as [[GIMP]].
