💡 Inspiration

Retro Study is a website aimed to provide better education with great resources. The level of education a person has unquestionably impacted their quality of life. Education enhances information and skills while also fostering the growth of personality and attitude. Most significantly, education affects people's prospects of finding work. A person with a lot of education is usually quite likely to land a decent career. It inculcates information, conviction, ability, moral principles, and values. It enhances the quality of life and elevates people's social and economic standing. Therefore, we are here to provide resources that advance education.

⚙ What it does

Here are the features of Retro Study:

  • Online Courses: Taking up a professional course is important to improve your performance in a given career. In order to acquire more advanced and better skills, many people today go for these professional courses. Here you can find and register for the courses.

  • 3D Learn: AR aids students in gaining a better understanding of ideas. It allows children to visualize things and develop an interest in learning more about them in an entertaining way. Students will be able to learn and memorize information more quickly. Here you can see the AR of Earth, chemicals, etc.

  • Posture detector: Sitting with proper alignment improves blood flow, helps keep your nerves and blood vessels healthy, and supports your muscles, ligaments, and tendons. A posture detector helps you to maintain the correct posture.

  • Doubt Chat: The reason that students don't speak up in class could be that they don't understand the material and might feel afraid that their questions will make them appear unintelligent to their peers. Here students can chat with the teacher asking questions. Later the teacher will connect with the students to solve their queries.

  • Speech-to-Text Note Taking : WebSpeech API is used for the efficient conversion of spoken words into text. Cloudflare is implemented to enhance the Speech-to-Text functionality.

🛠 How we built it

First we made a rough prototype of the website in figma. Then, for the front end, we used the templating language EJS in combination with CSS. When I was using EJS, we made sure to use stuff like partials. We also used NodeJS to put up a small web server, and everything was constructed using Repl.it, an in-browser IDE that was great for collaborating and giving feedback in real-time. Then we used tensorflow.js and machine learning to train the model for the posture detector.

💪 Challenges we ran into

  • It is our first time building a complete website on Replit as well as working with TensorFlow and Echo 3D at first we are unable to understand the working on the same. But we are able to do it after reading documentation or searching more about it.
  • It was hard to make a fully responsive and beautiful UI of Retro Study. But we are able to do it because of teamwork.

📌 Accomplishments that we're proud of

  • Well, we built a whole social platform in 16 hours!! That's the biggest achievement of this hackathon.
  • Able to build the platform on Replit that really solves the issue. We for trying our best.

📚 What we learned

Learned more about Tensorflow and Replit . Learned a lot more about Echo 3D and responsive designs.

🛠What's next forRetro Study

  • Scaling to hundreds of thousands of users and UX improvements!
  • Making the code Open Source and engaging different People.
