bitmap display การใช้

• In 1972, Knight designed one of the first semiconductor memory-based bitmap displays.
• In computing, the X Window System ( commonly : X11, or X ) is a bitmap displays.
• The Smalltalk system went on to become very influential, innovating in bitmap displays, personal computing, the class browser interface, and many other ways.
• Xerox only realized their mistake in the early 1980s, after Apple's Macintosh revolutionized the PC market via its bitmap display and the mouse-centered interface, both copied from the Alto.
• The machines provided a large, black and white, bitmap display, keyboard and mouse, network adapter, local hard disks, more than 1 MB RAM, serial interfaces, and a local bus for extension cards.
• As an example, the bitmap display controller is little more than a 16-bit shift register; microcode moves display refresh data from main memory to the shift register, which serializes it into a display of pixels corresponding to the ones and zeros of the memory data.
• The mid-to-late 1980s saw the spread of laser printers, a " typographic " approach to word processing, and of true WYSIWYG bitmap displays with multiple fonts ( pioneered by the Xerox Alto computer and Gypsy word processor which was commercialised in the Xerox Star product range ).
