If I could redesign any medical device, I would attempt to change the current design of an artificial larynx. The original device is incredibly useful for its ability to allow those with damaged vocal cords to communicate with a voice by producing vibrations usually provided by the vocal cords. However, the sound it generates is very robotic and difficult to understand in many situations. I would like to change this device to create a clearer and more human sound, potentially by including an option to alter the frequency of the vibrations for different mouth orientations, or through the use of a different method controlled by the user (such as a dial on the device).
