You should really look into that. It would help alot of people who can not talk. :) It could be kinda possible would it not? Just keep a small blower that blows air throught a straw. Then from there you can help those who can't talk. Would that possibly work? If anyone knows please tell me. :) It would be cool if it could help them.

@Tyler4768 Yes, we're talking about a speaking prosthetic for people in the less developed countries, the way inexpensive wheelchairs or prosthetic leg designs are designed for those circumstances.

Great idea. Lots of flexibility. I liked your point 3/4 ths of the way through the video about keeping your eyes open...Stop and really think about what's around you and how things operate... Another great video and project.
