Shulker - An YouTube Companion App for Education

Overview of My Submission

As students all over the world were forced to attend online classes, YouTube became a popular go-to option for a lot of students (like me 😬) who were unable to understand online lectures.

While studying via YouTube videos, I often found myself getting distracted (by Minecraft videos 😅) and wasted a good number of hours trapped in the recommended videos.

To overcome that we came up with this idea of having a companion application where you can create categories and add a bunch of channels which will allow you to focus on content which is necessary and avoid unnecessary distractions.

To make the application more useful, we integrated Azure's Cognitive Services for

  • Speech to Text for generating transcriptions
  • Sentiment Analysis and Opinion Mining for rating the video (because YouTube removed dislike counts ☹️)
  • Azure ML to train an AI powered Quiz Generator
  • Summary of the video in text format (so that you do not waste time on the wrong video 🤓)
