  • Abstract
    The employment of a read-only memory store as a storage medium for limited speech vocabularies is described. The device, along with an electronics interface, is intended to serve as a remote speech output system driven by an ordinary teletype or key-punch without computer control. The use of such a stored vocabulary as a sensory aid for the blind is outlined.
