Great to see these screenshots. Thanks for posting! Nintendo joy cons run a version of micro TRON. And the software IntelligentPad used a lot of TRON concepts. https://blog.gingerbeardman.com/2023/05/17/intelligentpad-co...

There are bits of TRON all over the electronic musical instruments segment, as well ..

Youre kidding! That's a great fact. Do you have a source for that joycon part?

Here we go! Press release.

Oh wow! Article writer here, can't believe I didn't come across this when I was researching. Kicking myself haha

There were a handful of reportedly great pixel drawing apps for TRON, which I'm going to try when I'm back from vacation. So thanks for the info about TRON VMs.

uITRON isn't rare on microcontrollers, especially in automotive. A lot of uC has official BSPs based on it.
