It probably would make a good FPGA project. War story follows.
Two and a half decades ago, I made a controller for the Hitachi LM215 out of a Z80, 62256 SRAM, 27256 EPROM, and some logic. We were using the LM213 LCD which had its own controller and worked fine. But it cost $60 or $70 each. I found a huge surplus of the LM215 for dollars each, so this looked like a great deal. But the LM215 did not have a controller. And a controller card cost something like $50 each.
The Hitachi LM215 is the work of the devil.
The display is divided into 4 quadrants, each 64x128 if I remember right. The controller had to send four pixels at a time, ONE FOR EACH QUADRANT. So the memory map was a complete mess. My controller "worked" and had a good display, but mangling the pixels was too much work for the Z80, which was spending most of its time refreshing the pixel rows. So close, yet so far away.
This display has the decency to go top to bottom, left to right
