Hello That TGV Cab digit TVM300 or TVM430 real
You could have different colours for each number it you can get into it. Not sure there would be enough though, even if you include white.🌈
With all those IEE displays, you could really build a clock, every digit with another display 🙂
Had to rewatch this after your nimo tube history lesson!
Maybe it coud be updated to RGB LEDs to extra cool this cool device!
I know that some Versions of the CK-37 Mission Computer from the Swedish Fighter Jet Viggen used these kind of Displays to show information to the Pilot.
Use an arduino
I remember these displays a lot from those days. As a graphic designer, I often wondered why they weren't used in "period' movies to better reflect the era. e.g. that Indiana Jones Crystal Skull movie debacle should have used these one-plane displays (or nixie tubes) instead of a too modern red LED display countdown clock that would hardly be period-realistic for the late 50s in which the movie was set!
I've been trying to figure out what these are called for a long time. One of our main computers in the control room of a nuclear plant where I used to work used this kind of display. It also had a dot matrix printer. The last time I saw it was around 1985, so it's been a while. Not being a computer or instrument person, I didn't know what they were. I'm glad I stumbled across this video. It explains it exactly in language that I can understand. Thanks for sharing!
This lit up my Day..
I think these, or something very similar, were popular in elevators back a few decades.
This display was on Black/White TV in 1960/1970s speed skatng events.
