- Zenith Royal Crusader Hearing Aid, circa 1965 - The invention of transistors went beyond miniaturization of radio technology. This small transistor-powered hearing aid gathered sound waves and transmitted the sound to the earpiece placed within the wearer's ear. The packaging is as interesting as the small hearing aid device; it was carefully designed by the donor, Mel Boldt, to appeal to the style-conscious consumers in the 1960s.

- LINC Main Console, 1963 - This transistorized computer was designed for use in medical and scientific laboratories. Created at MIT's Lincoln Laboratory by Wesley A. Clark and Charles Molnar, researchers could program the LINC to receive instant visual feedback in their own laboratory, rather than using timeshared systems. This LINC console was built by computer scientist Jerry Cox at the Central Institute for the Deaf.

- Michigan TDD and Service Directory, 1990 - This directory was compiled to help people who are deaf or with speech disorders to connect to text-based telephone services. The businesses and services listed within--doctors, schools, churches, government offices--typically had their own teletypewriter terminal to exchange messages with TDD/TTY users. If a business didn't have their own equipment, a relay service could be used to facilitate communication.
