## Summary

Subvocal has opened pre-orders for glasses that convert silently mouthed words into text at more than 200 words per minute. The company says the device uses non-contact sensing of internal speech muscles, so users need neither a keyboard nor audible speech. The author, Rohan Paul, is reposting a quoted announcement from Aarush Yadav, who is not the company itself.

## Why it matters

The source describes a silent-speech input method that converts mouthed words into text without sound or a keyboard, a use case distinct from voice dictation.

## Post

I did not think this was possible yet. your face just became a keyboard.

Typing with no keyboard and no voice now exists, I’m still processing this launch.

Subvocal's glasses turn silently mouthed words into text at 200+ words per minute.

Voice dictation beats typing for speed, but it becomes unusable wherever talking aloud would disturb others or expose private text.

Now that problem is solved.

Underneath, radar travels from the frames through your face, each silently formed word changes how it reflects, and the AI decodes that into text at 200+ words per minute. The people around you see, at most, a little movement at your mouth.
