The diminished capacity to identify sound is hearing misfortune. Deafness is the total inconceivability of hearing sound. There are various reasons for deafness and hearing misfortune and they can create at whatever stage in life. As a complexity of an infection, individuals can go hard of hearing suddenly, or lose their hearing after some time because of disorder, nerve harm, or commotion actuated injury. Hearing loss is caused by the inner ear, cochlea, auditory nerve, or brain injury dysfunction. This form of hearing loss is typically attributed to the cochlea's impaired cells. Another common cause for hearing loss is long-term exposure to noisy environment, especially high-frequency sounds. Here our device comes into action. The device created here is very cost-effective and available to many individuals so that they can conduct the tests at home. When a person continues to do these assessments at home, they understand their condition and can contact a doctor in time if it gets worse and seek help immediately. Here, we build an app that is really useful for a regular individual who uses a phonein everyday life. The findings are given directly in the app after the test is finished. Instead of going to an ENT and performing the basic audiometer test, we can use this software instead in home. Thus, when a doctor visits rural areas he doesn't have to bring theaudiometer gadget to havethese checkups done, instead he can only carry his phone and the device.
