Help designing medical speech device

This was posted to the MAKE Forums and I thought I’d repost it here:

We need to create a revamped “Cooper Rand” which is a speech device for those who have had throat cancer or other larynx related illness. This device needs to be wireless. Is anyone interested in sharing wireless technology ideas?

See it at http://www.speechaid.com/cooperrand.asp

Technology from 1950 with 9 volt batteries. Any ideas about how to update it very much appreciated here and all over the world.
