This Device Listens to the Audio of Diarrhea to Detect Cholera Outbreaks

 


Artificial intelligence (AI) has many uses in the real world with tech magnate Elon Musk saying the country that controls it will rule the world. In today's world it is used in cameras, creating essays, creating digital images, controlling traffic and more. In the United States artificial intelligence has been used to detect the existence of cholera outbreaks earlier.



Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed a device that listens to audio from defecating toilet users to detect cholera outbreaks. The audio of liquid diarrhea is easy to distinguish from normal defecation.


The artificial intelligence on the device has been trained to detect diarrhea audio from the user. Based on the audio that has been analyzed, the existence of a cholera outbreak can be detected early before it becomes more serious in the community.


Devices can be placed in public toilets used in communities that are often threatened by cholera outbreaks and also in elderly care centers for early monitoring.
