Since more than one year we see rising numbers in whooping cough globally. Today we can reed Ireland, Seattle and Louisina in the USA in the news. It is globally, last year we were informed by our school about a case of whooping cough in my son\u2019s class. The cases are currently increasing across the Germany and whole world, if you check Google for the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another case has now occurred with my son`s class. There is a certain unrest among the parents, especially due to the experiences of the last few years. The children are partly at an age where the effect of the vaccinations is waning, and some have infants at home, for whom it can be critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have started with VOIZZR an app that measures deviations in the voice. I observe my voice daily and can tell when I am tired or going through a stressful phase. You can also recognize a good wine tasting. Various athletes already use the app for performance diagnostics, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Now about whooping cough: My son had to be the test subject again for some tests, see the picture: Top left is my son, bottom left (view in the cockpit) and right (view in the app) is a boy of the same age with a verified diagnosis of whooping cough. It is noticeable that the values for the boy with whooping cough are almost zero and well below 0.1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The number of Pertussi infections are increasing globally<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
The task sounds easy. We want to identify whooping cough cases as early as possible<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your voice is remarkably sensitive<\/strong> and responds to various influences. These can include stress, fatigue, or illness. Interestingly, a whooping cough infection can also impact the voice. In preparation for a new model of artificial intelligence, we now seek your support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can recognize many psychological and physical strains in the voice.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Given the sensitivity of this topic, athletes and trainers are eager to find a straightforward way to identify and communicate these phases. Our approach involves voice analysis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Study Objective<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We aim to identify parameters and biomarkers in the voice and especially the coughing that significantly change before the infection of whooping is increasing<\/strong>. Our goal is to find a proper and reliable way to increase the healthiness of our kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How You Can Help<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re an athlete, your participation matters. We simply need your daily voice recordings via the VOIZZR PITCH ANALYZER APP<\/strong>, along with some information about your current cycle phase. Don\u2019t worry; it\u2019s okay if you miss a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Test Preparation<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Download the app<\/strong>: Choose your preferred platform\u2014Google Android or iPhone or Xiaomi<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    2. Select your language<\/strong>: In the app\u2019s navigation menu, choose your desired language (currently available in English and German).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    3. Configure Settings<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \"This<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    4. Daily tests:<\/strong> If possible, do the tests every day and at the same time. If you forget a day, this is no problem, testing at a different time is also no problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \"This<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    5. Monitoring:<\/strong> In VOZZR Analytics you will find the results of your voice audiofiles analysed by more than 50 AI algorithms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    We’ve received reports from several users and have also observed in friends and family members that symptoms of whooping cough occur with cough values that are almost at zero like in the following screenshot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    Please take into account: VOIZZR is not a medical product. VOIZZR is measuring technical signals in your voice and is showing deviations from YOUR \u201cNORMAL\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    Users who had a cold or the flu reported values very close to 1.<\/p>\n\n\n
