Modularity

A big issue with our project going forward is a lack of foresight into what the final patient identification module will be. We are considering everything from active RFID to automatically detect a study participant, to a passive RFID reader connected by bluetooth to the doctor's phone, to a very simple passive RFID or barcode card that the parent carries with them (and hopefully doesn't forget). Because of this, modularity is key - the functionality of the phone after the patient identified is the same, so our goal is to abstract away how exactly the patient will be identified. We'll provide several identification modules as proofs of concept, to ensure that we aren't making assumptions about how identification works in later steps of the interaction.
