If you plan to attend the meeting only, please advise us so that we can ensure adequate seating is available. CART With CART, everything that is said is “captioned” live for deaf and hard of hearing individuals. The CART captions will be displayed via a projector on a large screen. The CART provider quickly types into a stenotype machine using machine shorthand, and the computer software translates that shorthand into realtime captions, matching the shorthand against what is in a specialized shorthand dictionary stored in the computer. The process is so fast that there is hardly any lag time between what is said and what the deaf or hard of hearing person is able to read.
