teletypewriter
A teletypewriter, also known as a teletype or TTY, is a typewriter-like device used for sending and receiving typed messages via various transmission methods such as telephone and telegraph lines. Originally introduced in the early 20th century, it allowed for real-time, two-way communication and was used extensively for business and news transmission before being gradually replaced by computers. It's still used today in specialized areas such as telecommunications for the deaf and hard-of-hearing.
