"Speech Therapist’s App for /r/ Treatment (staRt) is an iOS app currently in development at New York University (NYU) that aims to increase the number of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) using visual-acoustic biofeedback to augment treatment for residual rhotic errors."
This video (3 min, 47 s) shows the staRt app as well as a demonstration of a clinician using the app with a patient.
