Neuros
Our project is an app to help with forgetting people, objects, and general cognitive decline. We use machine learning to recognize people and objects. We also quiz users on people they add.

Description
Provide a short and concise description of the social problem your project is addressing/solving:
We were inspired by the memory loss that people affected by conditions of dementia face. Dementia is a very common cognitive disease, and over 5.7 million people in the US suffer from dementia related conditions. It starts out with a slow cognitive decline which can mean forgetting the name of an object, but it can lead to mixing up and even forgetting loved ones. This is something no one should have to face and we wanted to find a way to solve this problem.
Provide a short and concise description of how you integrated AI into your project (Please make this description short. You will be able to explain further in the video):
The main use of machine learning in our app is adding and recognizing a person. Users can take a picture of someone, tag them with a name, and add memories that they have had with the person. If a user forgets who a person is, they can take a picture of them and the person’s profile will be loaded. Additionally, users can take pictures of objects and machine learning will identify the object and display its name and definition to the user. We've created and trained the cloud models on Microsoft Azure to carry out the main features of our app.
Attach a video with a maximum length of 3 minutes that includes project demonstration, further explanation, etc. of your project.
