In collaboration with researchers at the University of Notre Dame and other leading institutions with an interest in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), Contect is developing a mobile app that provides athletic trainers, coaches, physicians and parents a fast, simple and more objective way to detect concussions. Unlike traditional concussion screening methods which require cumbersome equipment or medical training, take a long time to administer, and are prone to manipulation by athletes, Contect is a simple app that runs on your mobile device, and recognizes the changes in speech acoustics that occur with concussions. The result is a more objective, highly mobile concussion screening test that takes only two minutes to perform and can protect your athletes from the dangers of repeated concussions.
