ABOUT BIONIC VOICE
The Bionic Voice is the world’s first smart wearable electronic
voice prosthesis for laryngectomy people (larynx amputees
or laryngectomees). Bionic Voice substitutes and regenerates
the missing "voice source” for laryngectomees. It is naturally
controlled by respiration and has an exceptionally high voice
quality. The Voice is generated by a smart algorithm and can
be trained in its future generation to reach a voice quality
resembling the patient’s own.
NATUALLY CONTROLLED
Electronic voice prostheses
such as electrolarynx require manual control. Bionic Voice
is naturally controlled using respiration.
HIGH-QUALITY
SOUND
Bionic Voice generates a voice quality better than other solutions on the
market.
SMART
PROSTHESIS
Bionic Voice has an Artificial Intelligence (AI) module that learns to improve the quality
of the voice over time to sound closer to the patient's own.
THE SCIENCE BEHIND IT
Bionic Voice is a wearable system, integrating hardware and software to generate true voice for laryngectomees.
A pressure sensing module sits over the patient’s stoma to monitor respiration. Similar to the vocal folds, these readings then drive an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based software model of vocal folds which produces the patient’s voice.
The AI software is designed to learn and mimic the natural voice of the patient.

RECENT NEWS
October 11, 2021
Laronix is excited to announce that our CEO and Founder,
Dr. Farzaneh Ahmadi, was featured on ABC News
Earlier this month, Laronix was featured on ABC News as an award winning innovation Bionics Queensland is pioneering this year. Dr. Farzaneh Ahmadi was presented on ABC to explain the Bionic Voice box and it's impact on people who have lost their voice due to laryngeal cancer, giving larynx cancer survivors hope.
The Laronix voice box is non-evasive and wearable to avoid complications of surgery.
It uses artificial intelligence (AI) to analyse respiration signals and produce a natural-sounding voice. Laronix currently has a database of male- and female-sounding voices, however, in time, it will give patients the opportunity to regain their own voice.
