Default Re: It's vintage technology. Honest!

Back in the 80's (84/85) we were partnered with a company based in Kingston upon Thames which provided mobile data terminals for police vehicles.

I still had some of the spares 20 years later.

None of my team had to repair a single unit in the 10 year contract.

I often wondered how it went for the users.

The monitors used little 6 inch CRT's

Z80 processors comms was over UHF radio which we were not responsible for.

There was no thought of using them for reversing cameras due to the size of the Cameras.

Cheers
