See the variations in sound amplitude
SeeSound is an android app to see the variations in sound amplitude picked up from Android device’s microphone.
SeeSound helps people with weak hearing especially elderly or differently-abled to identify whether there is something being said to them or its just a hallucination(psychosis).
Upon installing the app, giving record audio permissions once prompted, user will see a screen with plots of audio amplitude.
The system reads audio amplitude from microphone and normalizes it from zero to top (height) of the screen. A loud audio sample is displayed as a taller bar and a lower audio means a shorter bar on the charts.
Here is the app appearance if a person speaks to user:
