Besides the mouse, what display technology did Engelbart help develop?

  • LED Display

  • Bitmapped Screens

  • 3D Printing

  • OLED

Answer

**Bitmapped screens**, pioneered by Douglas Engelbart, revolutionized display technology by storing a grid of individual pixels in computer memory, analogous to a painting's brushstrokes. Each pixel's color can be precisely controlled, enabling the creation of sharp images, icons, and text. This technology laid the foundation for modern graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and paved the way for the evolution of visual computing that we experience today.
