Definitions

  • This invention has as its object electronic equipment for high-speed writing on electronic typewriters, incorporated or external printers, photo-composers, processors and the like and as a means for rapid communication for those with a verbal handicap.
  • the characteristic of the invention is to permit writing of an alphabetic or alphanumerical text at a speed up to 1,200 characters per minute (therefore, more than double the typewriter input) in any current language: English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, etc.
  • the equipment according to the invention makes it possible instead at each stroke, by use of several fingers simultaneously, to strike entire words or several letters, obtaining, by electronic processing, the corresponding complete text in connected equipment, with a reduction of work time from 2 - 2..5 to 1, i.e., as indicated above, with a speed of more than 1,200 characters per minute.
  • the text can be written in any language.
  • the keyboard comprises 8 operating sectors, 4 for the right hand and 4 for the left hand and further comprises a sector for operating commands and a sector for controlling possible external equipment.
  • the machine consists of a keyboard, of electronic decoding, printing apparatus, connectors for the external printers, for the recorders, for connections with word processors or with an electronic typewriter.
  • the code formally differs, depending on the language chosen, because of frequency,grammatical and orthographic problems.
  • the keyboard is shown in Fig. 1 and comprises 8 sectors a 1 , a 2 , a 3 , b 1 , b 2 , c l , c 2 , c 3 which are represented in the following tables with the relative reference letters and numbers, plus a "c 4 " sector for operating commands and a "d" sector for commands to external equipment.
  • the basic structure under consideration is alphabetic writing with keying of several letters at each stroke (or even a syllable at a time) with the possibility of electronic abbreviation of the word with the aid of 3 operating com- mands and abbreviation of the word as part of a situational discourse.
  • 39 keys are distributed in 8 operating sectors a 1 , a 2 , a 3 , b 1 ,b 2 , c 1 , c 21 c 3 (Fig. 1) plus a sector (c 4 ) for operating commands and a d sector for controlling external equipment.
  • the code for English has the following distribution:
  • Words are formed by the following rules:
  • the abbreviation process is activated by pressing key 39 simultaneously with the other letter.
  • the code provides for writing very frequent words with a single stroke (also in this case the stroke is completed with key 39).
  • the writing can also be done in syllables. List of abbreviations provided. However, other abbreviations of two types can be added for specific languages.
  • Fig. 2 diagrammatically represents the connections of the keyboard with the microprocessor which sequentially reads the various groups of keys and memorizes the corresponding sequences.
  • Fig. 5 the various letters indicate: The feeder of the KEYBOARD (T), MICROPROCESSOR (MSC), BUFFER 1 (BU 1) for controlling the printing head, BUFFER 2 (BU 2) for controlling the printer motor, PRINTER (ST) in which is seen MOTOR (M) since it requires a specific control (BU 2).
  • the microprocessor sequentially scans the keyboard (the functional groups of the keyboard) and memorizes the pressed keys as long as a key on the entire keyboard remains D res- sed, then it proceeds to decoding the combination and memorizes them.
  • each complete scan of the keyboard it verifies the contents of the storage: when the storage content reaches a present number of characters, it gives an execution order to the printer, or proceeds to the transmission of the data to external connections (video, processor, photocomposer, electronic, typewriter, etc.).
  • external connections video, processor, photocomposer, electronic, typewriter, etc.
  • a printer it verifies the maximum number of complete words that can be contained in a line of print and possibly decides that the last characters contained in the line are printed successively.
  • the equipment under discussion can automatically generate abbreviations cither of the ending or entire word by omitting the central vowel of the syllable so that the microprocessor automatically recognizes by what is not written what is to be written.
  • the microprocessor will identify the irregularity by the lack of "a”, will then search in its memory the code "graph” which can correspond to a word such as graphic or similar precoded words.
  • the microprocessor will interpret this as an abbreviation and will make the search as provided, by pressing key 40, whereby it will automatically generate the complete and correct word, graph, elimininating the error.
