Create a budget conscious ground sensor using a smart phone to collect important data and relay it back using either wifi or a cell phone tower.

There are two phases for this challenge.

Phase 1 - Develop low-cost unattended, ground sensor utilizing a smart phone as the solution. Conceptual use case is an Android based capability that allows any Android based phone to be used to collect the data of interest and report the activity back utilizing either WiFi or cellular network.

Phase 2 - The most promising submission(s) may be provided with additional funding to develop their concepts into working prototypes for testing.
