Mobile hearing screening solution

Overview

HearScreen is a smartphone app that uses a normal headphone with a custom-developed software application to detect hearing loss. The app turns the phone’s microphone into a calibrated sound level meter that monitors environmental noise during testing to ensure noise levels do not interfere with test results. The app also allows onsite data capturing and sharing capabilities, and a referral database for healthcare providers. The app has been validated and deployed as a school and community-based health screening system to address needs in many under-resourced regions of South Africa. Developed at the University of Pretoria.
