Abstract :
A remote terminal with graphical output capability has been designed for use with time-shared computer systems. The terminal contains a small computer to provide local picture storage and the ability to employ picture encoding techniques which greatly reduce transmission times. A storage oscilloscope is used to view the output. Terminal cost is currently about $10 000.
