a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and to the plurality of keys, the processor:
for each of the plurality of keys, storing in the memory one of the range of depression positions as a respective key-press registration point;
2. The stenographic device according to claim 1, wherein the key-press registration point for each of the plurality of keys indicates when the respective key is in the actuated state.
3. The stenographic device according to claim 1, wherein, when the stenographically recognized key stroke is created, the stenographically recognized key stroke is recorded and stored with stenographic data in the memory.
4. The stenographic device according to claim 3, wherein the processor stores at least one of an audio data file and a video data file along with location information in a data file of the stenographic data.
5. The stenographic device according to claim 4, further providing a translator associated with the processor, the processor passing the stored stenographically recognized key stroke to the translator for translation into a user's language.
6. The stenographic device according to claim 5, further comprising a display communicatively coupled to the processor, the processor displaying text of the stored stenographically recognized key stroke on the display.
7. The stenographic device according to claim 1, wherein the respective key-press registration points are different and independently adjustable.
8. The stenographic device according to claim 1, wherein, when at least two keys are depressed, the processor determines that the depressed keys creates the stenographically recognized key stroke.
9. The stenographic device according to claim 1, wherein, when at least two keys are depressed, the processor determines that the depressed keys does not create the stenographically recognized key stroke and determines at least one best match for a possible stenographically recognized key stroke.
10. The stenographic device according to claim 1, wherein, when the stenographically recognized key stroke is created, the processor determines that a keystroke is unrecognizable.
11. The stenographic device according to claim 10, wherein, when the processor determines that a keystroke is unrecognizable, the processor makes an attempt to produce the stenographically recognized key stroke based upon depressed keys that passed the respective key-press registration point in combination with any depressed keys that failed to reach the respective key-press registration point.
12. The stenographic device according to claim 11, wherein the unrecognizable keystroke is recorded and stored with stenographic data in the memory.
13. The stenographic device according to claim 12, wherein the processor stores at least one of an audio data file and a video data file along with location information in a data file of the stenographic data.
14. The stenographic device according to claim 10, further providing a translator associated with the processor, the processor passing the stored unrecognizable keystroke to the translator to produce at least one of a best match and a set of possible matches.
15. The stenographic device according to claim 14, wherein the processor permits a user to select a translation from real-time suggestions provided by the translator.
