This reminds me of the S38 days when a friend of mine rigged up a light
sensor and hung it in front of a 5250 screen. We then had a pgm that would
acquire the device and display reverse image blanks on the screen.

Hmm. Reminds me of the old Radio Shack TRS-80 voice synthesizer. It had a direct bus connection, and if you activated it, it would say whatever phoneme string you placed at a specified spot on the screen. Never had one myself; thought it profoundly useless, and besides, it spoke with a really silly accent.
