[Freeswitch-users] Freeswitch API access

Fri Jun 23 17:16:08 UTC 2017

There is one more 'I' in the institute name IIIT (https://iiitd.ac.in) :).
In my PhD work which belongs to the domain of HCI, broadly, I address the
challenge of training Community Health Workers, who work in rural parts of
India using mobile technology. I actively use Freeswitch in my work. I have
built a platform that combines IVR and android app to provide a synchronous
discussion forum for these health workers. Its use can be seen in two of
the research papers:

http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=2858585

I find this Freedomfone software very interesting and will definitely
explore it for our use cases.

Again, thanks for sharing the information.

Regards,
Deepika
