Abstract
An artificial larynx is an essential tool for laryngeal cancer patients to vocalise after surgery. With laryngeal cancer patients increasing, the demand for the quantity and quality of artificial larynxes is surging. To improve the convenience of vocalising by patients after surgery and formalise their life, the combination of intelligent phonation technology equipment and design developed both functional and fashionable artificial larynxes for these patients. This paper analysed the overseas and domestic research and concluded the smart wearable artificial larynx's technology, material, and operating principles. Additionally, this research discovered people’s demand and design principles for the artificial larynx through the survey. Then, it formulated a relative evaluation system and integrally designed the technology and material that can be applied to the wearable artificial larynx, which was verified by experiment.
