Three years since I started building this dream.
I think I’ve finally reached something more or less presentable.
Welcome to The PockEmul Club A first look at PockEmul VR on the Meta Quest 2: a virtual museum of vintage pocket computers, in the style of an English gentlemen’s club. Wood-panelled walls, Chesterfield armchairs, soft jazz and period adverts set the scene for dozens of Sharp, Casio, HP, Texas Instruments and other classic machines, laid out on tables by family.
Pick one up and it comes to life: each pocket is fully emulated by PockEmul, so you type on its real keyboard with your own fingers and watch its LCD answer, just as on the original hardware. Browse the libraries for user manuals, or stretch out in the lounge with a pocket in hand.
Work in progress: more machines and features to come.
