A chorded keyboard requires two or more keys to be pressed at once to produce symbols.
The input scheme is often proprietary, limited to that brand of chorded keyboard.
Chorded input schemes for court transcription, such as Stenotype and Velotype often produce phonemes or syllables instead of regular key symbols. A trained user of such a system could be able to type very fast.
Early keyboards for various encodings, such as telegraph encodings or Braille dot-script are considered chorded because each key would be mapped to a part of the encoding directly.
