Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for the remote detection of otitis media in children at home or in other locations for use in a telemedicine environment. The system runs on a smartphone application and is easy for a child's caregiver to use. The system also includes a pop-open soundwave guide that directs an audio signal from a smartphone's speaker to the patient's eardrum and back to the smartphone's microphone.

Abstract: A controller for use with a mobile device is provided. The controller includes a video game controller; and a mobile device holder including a frame, a lock member, and a spring. The frame is pivotably coupled to the video game controller to rotate between a range of setting angles with respect to the video game controller. The frame member is coupled to the lock member via a spring, such that the lock member is slidably moveable to a retracted and an extended configuration. The lock member is biased toward the retracted configuration by the spring to retain the mobile device in the mobile device holder during use. Other related controllers and systems for use with mobile devices are also provided.
