Definitions
- the present invention makes it possible to achieve grey scale operation, but it also permits a readable image to be displayed in significantly less time than is taught by prior art EPIDs. It should thus be apparent to those skilled in the art that the above-described techniques and associated apparatus lends itself to many alternate embodiments.
- the display instead of operating the display in a keyboard mode, the display may be adapted to receive data from a typical telephone line or other transmission media using an analog to digital converter and digital signal pixel generator (not shown).
- an analog to digital converter and digital signal pixel generator not shown.
