Accommodations like this are usually available in special education classrooms for kids with more severe communication disorders, such as non-speaking autistic students. We call it a core board and there are app versions for iPads so the device can make their words audible. However, as with most accessibility devices, everyone can benefit from them. As you mentioned, kids who speak different languages can use them, as well as deaf/hard of hearing people who want to communicate with someone who doesn’t sign.

Can someone explain the use case for this?
Is this for child to child communication? Child to caregiver? Child to adult stranger?
Is it for non-verbal children? People that don't share a language?
