Mental Peace and Calm

The problem SEEK solves

Mental health issues are generally undetected or are not recognized for an individual's entire lifetime.

They accept their situations and don't even realize that there might be a better way of living life and feeling things. In India, with 10 percent of its 1.3 billion-strong population having suffered from one or more mental health problems.

According to WHO, India accounted for nearly 15 percent of the global mental, neurological, and substance abuse disorder burden. A meta-analysis of community surveys estimates that the prevalence of depression and anxiety could be up to 33 per 1,000 persons.

SEEK lets people reach out to their closed ones. It monitors their video for sentiments that might down the line be used to perform analysis. As a mental health app, it also motivates and empowers users with daily check-ins.

Challenges we ran into

Our first challenge was collecting data to perform analysis. We found this data set that measured attitudes towards mental health and the frequency of mental health disorders in the tech workplace.

The next challenge was integrating Video Calling into a Flutter app for which we have used Agora.
