USB for a 1977 Keyboard: The Vista80 Keyboard
The talk will be about how I bought a retro keyboard for a VISTA80 from the Canada Science and Technology museum and reversed engineered it to convert it passively to USB. The VISTA80 was a machine built in Canada and was used to "Create pages of text for cable TV systems or to create running lines of text or titles for television displays."¹ The VISTA80 was manufactured around 1995-1997 and was "One of the first character generators to use a computer chip (Intel 8080A) as a controller"¹. - The history of the Vista80 - A look inside of the keyboard - The Original circuitry - Prototype - Mapping the matrix - Making the circuit board - Highlights and Lessons learned I would potentially like to collaborate with the museum to get more information on the device.
