Overview
SmartNote is an AI-powered Android study companion built as the COMP5216 Mobile Computing group project (Group 3, 2024).
The app addresses the fragmented way students capture and revise study material (handwritten notes, lecture audio, whiteboard photos, and typed documents scattered across multiple tools) by consolidating capture, comprehension, and revision into a single AI-integrated app.
Features
Audio to text: tap record during a lecture or meeting to transcribe speech to text in real time, capturing everything without manual typing.
Image to text (OCR): photograph handwritten notes or whiteboard content and have it converted to editable digital text, eliminating retyping and the risk of missing information while copying from slides.
AI-generated practice questions: SmartNote generates personalised practice exam questions from your notes in a format of your choice, turning passive notes into active revision.
Translation: translate notes into any of 19 languages with a single tap, supporting international students, language learners, and cross-language collaboration.
Note accuracy checking: the app reviews your notes for factual accuracy, identifies gaps in understanding, and suggests improvements so you can study with confidence.
Data visualisation: complex information, equations, and data are rendered as easy-to-understand visualisations to make difficult concepts click.
Intelligent summaries: SmartNote generates concise summaries of your notes, highlighting key concepts and connections for faster revision.
