A noctograph is a writing instrument composed of a piece of paper whose underside is treated with printer's ink carbon paper and a metal board with clips to hold the paper in place and guidelines to make for straight writing in the dark. The user writes with a metal stylus, and thus does not have to ink a pen or worry about knocking an inkstand over. The original purpose was to allow the blind or partially sighted to write with more ease than with a traditional pen, although it has also been used by the fully sighted to write in the dark. It was originally patented by Ralph Wedgwood in 1806.

  • Noctograph var en 1806 patenterad och av i London tillhandahållen apparat som gjorde det möjligt att skriva på natten eller vid blindhet. Namnet består av ”nox, noctis”= latin ”natt” och ”graphein” grekiska för ”skriva”. Den skrivande använder ett metallstift (metallpenna). Den ursprungliga syftet med apparaten var att göra det lättare för blinda och för personer med synnedsättning att skriva än med en traditionell penna (dvs fjäderpenna), även om apparaten också har använts även av personer med full syn för att skriva i mörkret.
