SiH 1403 : App-Based Audiometer

Problem Statement:

To know a person's Hearing Loss, generally we use a Pure Tone Audiometer. To use this it requires a bulk of the instrument to be carried. This testing requires a considerable amount of time for testing. It was observed that a large level of hearing testing, it is consuming much time. So a hand-held Mobile phone operated APP BASED AUDIOMETER will be of immense useful in finding and detecting hearing loss in children in schools

Motivation:

Introducing an app-based audiometer for school screenings revolutionizes the way we detect and address hearing loss in children. This mobile phone-operated solution offers unparalleled accessibility, convenience, and cost-effectiveness, drastically reducing testing time while ensuring early detection. By leveraging modern technology, this app empowers healthcare providers, educators, and parents to swiftly identify potential hearing issues, enabling timely intervention and fostering better academic and social outcomes for children.

source venv/bin/activate

• Install the requirements and run server

pip install -r requirements.txt
#Intialize DB data/Create Models in DB
python manage.py makemigrations
python manage.py migrate

cd backend
python manage.py runserver <ip_address>:80/<ip_address>:8081 

#Here <ip_address> is the IP address on which the expo is running
