In any court, the Court Stenographer makes a verbatim record of the official proceedings of the court. In the past, this has been done using shorthand notes, later transcribed.
During the 20th century, special machines were developed that permitted the Stenographer to mechanically record notes in a special shorthand with minimal finger motion - thus very fast. These notes were recorded on special, narrow, paper strips and later transcribed.
More recently, audio recording has been introduced, with automated voice recognition transcription in the wings. If this process is successfully implemented, Court Stenographers will need much less training and the function will become a less skilled job.
