Francis, Larry – 1976
This report examines the knowledge and experience gained from the implementation of three PLATO IV terminal devices: the microfiche system, the touch panel, and the random-access audio device. These devices, when attached to a PLATO IV terminal, serve to expand the types of input and output which can be managed by the terminal. For each peripheral…
