The Technovision terminal CLOU III was purchased from a German eBay seller and came from a large sale of classic computers and other old technology housed in a big warehouse. Sadly, he wasn't the greatest in packing so it arrived in a beat up box with just a few pieces of bubbly wrap and broken plastic on the keyboard as can be seen in the pictures.

Front view with the keyboard hidden.

Current status

The terminal looks to be complete but the frame for the keyboard was broken in freight. It hasn't been started so I have no clue if it still is working or not.

I don't have any information or manuals at all. Only the physical terminal with it's pen.

Plans

I will start with dismantling it a bit to document the construction of it and what's inside the cover. Maybe tracing the wires on the circuit board could reveal how to connect it to a computer.

Any documentation at all, manuals, programs, news articles, links... and so on would be appreciated.
