NOVO

Inspiration

After the COVID period education was mostly turned towards online mode, which made students concentrate on their studies and get consistent with it, our team found it difficult for a student to concentrate in class, keep track of the books and take notes all together at the same time in online mode because we have been in that situation, so we thought to come up with some solution.

What it does

To address this problem we came up with an App called NOVO a student meeting app with AI integration for online classes, this platform is especially for school education purposes which helps students to get well-structured notes after every session, using the **teacher's transcript (from speech to text) and the reference material on which was feed on AI or even teacher can upload it at the starting of the meeting. So by using this students can get well-structured notes after every class session and they can even concentrate on the class without getting distracted.

How we built it

Basically, this app was built on Flutter framework which can be fit into different screens (Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Web), we are hosting the ML model in google cloud, and Firebase for authentication.

Challenges we ran into

Challenges we ran into were first the speech-to-text module had little complication so that we couldn't get the whole teachers transcript for a full session so we wrote some logic into it so that it gets looped for getting the transcript, the second was the ML model since the model file was bit large we could host on google cloud as the file couldn't be uploaded on GitHub due to its size.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

An accomplishment that we're proud of is we found the logic to run the speech-to-text for the whole session and forward the transcript to the ML model, and as we needed to machine learning field but we found a way to do it and trained the model for our need and got the output as expected but that model couldn't be uploaded on GitHub so we couldn't able to host it online to connect it with the app, and this was the two most important things
