A talking stenograph for the blind

A machine called STENEX, which is intended to be used as a stenography machine for the blind, is described. The blind stenographer can enter material very fast, and voice feedback of the input material is provided to ensure accurate entry. All that is entered is stored in computer memory and it can be recalled, through a search memory, with voice output. The text record can be turned into written output if required. An important contribution of the work is the redefinition of the function of the normal type-in keys. Redefinition allows stenograph phonemes to be input using a standard keyboard.<
