3B November 28 Update

Today we worked on refining our problem definition. Since it is vital that the entire class participate in our project, we made sure that everyone had a comprehensive understanding of the issue at hand. We also divided into smaller groups to tackle our respective sections of the problem; these included an application design group, a software group, a hardware group, and a presentation group. The application design group began to create a user-friendly application for volunteer use, while the software group worked on the schematics of the code itself. The hardware group focused on the "Hub" research (a device for providing phone power and storage to volunteers in the field), and the presentation group began creating presentations for Team Rubicon COOs and Facebook engineers (to introduce them to our problem and ask for assistance).
