You can buy a screen for Raspberry Pi output:

https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/the-eagerly-awaited-raspberry-pi-display/

But suppose I didn't want to do that, and instead would be happy with a simple monochrome display, could I re-purpose old TI calculators for this purpose?

I'm not even sure if the tech is compatible, but it would be fun and cheap if you already have lots of junk calcs

Anybody have experience with this?

Unlikely, the chip on these calculators is specific to the TI itself, meaning you cannot push signals reliably. Why not just buy a dot-matrix LCD and work with that?

Yeah.....that's what I was afraid of, but I'll give it a try anyway and let you know how it turns out.

Saw this a while back, it'd be a neat idea if it weren't so expensive.
