Over one in four Americans suffer from skin disease, and it’s often hard to find out what skin disease you have. And using Google is very time consuming, because you’ll have to sift through all the search results that come up. That’s why we created DynamicDerma, a website that helps identify skin diseases, inform the user about them, and tell them where to get it cured.
DynamicDerma is a user-friendly website with two main functions, the first being the skincare evaluator. All users have to do is upload an attachment of an image, and using machine learning, it will compare the image with the 20+ common skin diseases in our database. It will then inform users about what disease they have, its symptoms, when to see a doctor, how to treat it, and a few sample images. Next there’s the dermatologist map, which uses Google Maps to help users find the closest dermatologists so that they can get care quickly and reliably.
For the front end we used HTML/CSS to create the website and make it user friendly. For the back end, ADD MORE STUFF
