Porting Doom to a payment terminal
For the past half a year or so I have been playing around with a specific type of payment terminal, the VX820 from Verifone.
I randomly bought a couple of second-hand devices, and found out that they are wonderful pieces of hardware with lots of potential for alternative uses. I figured that a fun goal for myself would be to port Doom to it, which would nicely showcase the device’s unexpected computational power.
