The TI-34 was one of the higher sophisticated calculators sold by Texas Instruments in the year 1987. Texas Instruments introduced in 1996 a fancier design of the TI-34 and Orbit Research updated the ORION TI-34, too.
Don't miss other talking products for vision impaired - the Calcu-Talk and the Vocaid.
Another approach could be found in the Schoenherr Braillotron using refreshable Braille cells instead the talking voice.
