The problem Audio Notes solves

A great leap in distance and online learning is learning through videos and live streams. It is proven that individuals adapt quickly through video learning as compared to other ways. The other ways to learn through online resources may include reading blogs and understanding through diagrams and flowcharts. However, video learning comes at various costs such as expensive data or wireless network packages and larger storage to store the resources. It may also happen that while watching the videos, the speed, and quality of the video may not be desirable. To tackle all of these problems, we need an application that converts the video to an audio file which the learner can simply listen to and enhance the learning process. This also provides the feature to record timestamps and note down relevant information that the learner may want to access later for reference or future revisions. This can ease the learning process to a greater extent as the learner in a way is able to maintain a mobile notebook of his own by using this feature. The conversion of video to audio may involve various formats of files. He can also share his notes with his friends and download the audio if he wants it offline.

Challenges we ran into

Analyzing large amounts of video data can be computationally intensive and require specialized software, services, or techniques. This can make it difficult to process and understand the data in a timely manner. So we had to come up with an optimized solution. Also transferring large amounts of data and then processing it can be time-consuming, especially if a user is working with a slow internet connection. So we made sure that such problems don't affect our application. The user can have different video formats and must be able to use his video to convert it to audio. Thus we had to implement this feature wherein our application can accept any video format and convert it accordingly. Also sharing projects was challenging as the edit access must be given to only the owner of the project and the viewers won't be able to modify the project.
