YC-backed Subvocal raises $1.3M to enable silent input of 200 words per minute with glasses
Subvocal has raised $1.3M from YC and Afore Capital. The product is a pair of glasses that uses non-contact sensing to track internal speech muscles and decode silent, nearly invisible mouthing into text at more than 200 words per minute. The team says this method is faster than typing and more natural than talking to a computer, and pre-orders are now open on the official website.

YC invested in a particularly unconventional new species: it doesn't want you to type on a keyboard, nor does it want you to open your mouth—yet it can type over 200 characters per minute https://t.co/OtJrIrQvEE
