The Computek 300 is a graphics terminal from around 1972.
As quoted from “Computer Aided Design”, Volume 4 Number 5 October 1972:
The Computek 300 v.d.u, is intended for display of both alphanumeric and graphical data. Standard features of the terminal include a teletype compatible series interface and a refresh at 50 times/s to guarantee a flicker-free display. One thousand and fifty characters can be displayed on the 12 in screen and a large number of vectors of any length van be displayed on a 256 X 256 grid. Individual characters or vectors can be edited without the need to erase and rewrite the entire screen. A Fortran software package is supplied with each terminal to help the user interface his applications programs easily to the Computek 300.

Trivia: Eindhoven University used a Computek 300 to communicate with the control system of their cyclotron.
