Abstract
The Design Amanuensis* supports design protocol analysis by capturing designers’ spoken and drawing actions and converting speech to text to construct a machine-readable multimedia document that can be replayed and searched for words spoken during the design session or for graphical configurations.
amanuensis: Latin, from a manu slave with secretarial duties; one employed to write from dictation or to copy manuscript (Merriam Webster Collegiate Dictionary)
