Software that detects concussions by analyzing the voice

    A tablet-based test will be able to detect concussions immediately by analyzing the victim's voice.
    The software will require that a person first recite a selection of words before the event. Using this baseline, the person will then recite the same words after a potentially concussive episode, which will allow the software to analyze any variations that will indicate a concussion, such as distorted vowels or hyper nasality.
    The system will also prevent athletes from being able to downplay their symptoms in order to stay in the game.
