CataDetect

Inspiration

One of our group members grandparents have Cataracts disease, which is one sparked the idea of making a recognition software.

What it does

Uses a trained database and facial recognition to identify if someone has Cataracts disease(97% accuracy with good ocular picture)

How we built it

We used Tkinter for the gui, powered with cv2 and torchvision.

Challenges we ran into

We initially wanted to make a website, but using fetch request and Flask Cors to transfer data between Javscript and Flask files made it really difficult, which is why we reverted to Tkinter and the complexity of the CNN

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This was our first time working with image recognition and creating datasets, so we're really proud that we were able to succesfully use these high level programming concepts in our project.
