Today's Star Trek entry for Ashens' Advent Calendar is a set of coasters with TOS-style computer graphics (pre-LCARS) on them.
PNQ: What era of computer graphics do you like the best?
The TOS-style of computer interface never got a name. Since the later movies used TNG sets you'll see a bit of LCARS in them, but we'll chalk that up to real-world events, not proof that LCARS existed in the 23rd century.
The Amazing Thing I Learned Today is that
Wikipedia has an article on LCARS. Weird.
Of course the Kelvinverse totally ignores canon and includes touchscreen tech called
PCAP-SYS. Abrams himself felt that they should be full-blown holograms.
The 29th century timeships used TCARS instead of LCARS. Temporal computer instead of library computer. I do wonder what a "temporal computer is".
