✦ Synopsis
An overview of personal computer graphics standards is presented. Standards are outlined in four categories: video standards (RS-170, TYC, and NTSC); peripherals (intelligent CRTs, display controllers, plotters, printers, film readers and vector-to-raster processors); software interfaces (device driver interface, software emulators and rasterisers, subroutine, libraries and the application interface); and picture description data versus application -level data. Conclusions are drawn on trends in standards.
