Our goal is to create a portable and durable medical device that will measure vital signs that a person will have taken during an average check up.  The target audience we are directing this device toward is the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa).  These are countries with limited trained medical personnel or medical equipment, but with economies that are on the rise.

Our Problem Statement:

The BRICS nations are industrialized countries with sufficient funds and recent technology. However, a majority of the population goes without proper/regular medical monitoring due to (1) lack of trained medical professionals, (2) lack of infrastructure, and (3) limited basic medical knowledge.
