VOCALZ

Awards: Berghs Student Awards, Gold, Team Award for the Future, 2022

Problem: Alzheimer’s disease is often discovered in a late stage.

Insight: One of the earliest and most common symptoms of Alzheimer’s is changes in speech, something many people don’t know.

Idea: A voice analyzing app that connects to home assistants like Amazon Alexa. The app will, with your permission, collect data by listening and analyzing how you talk to detect irregularities. It will then alert you if, or when, you need to see a doctor for further assessment. Through Vocalz, we’ll be able to discover Alzheimer’s in its earliest stage.
