QRB2 and PCB purchase

Over this past week, our team worked on putting together a presentation and showing it for our QRB2. We also worked further on building our prototype, which is currently in the following stages:

RFID Reader System:

We have decided in conjunction with FPL to collect all RFID data in-flight and sending it all at once at the end of the flight instead of mid-flight. This required some changes to the Arduino code, along with the server code responsible for parsing the data sent through the MQTT server.

PCB:

The PCB design is almost finalized, and we hope to place the order on Friday or Saturday once we add the micro-SD card component that we just received.

Web Application:

We will be working on migrating the web application to the cloud over the next week or two. Now, this is what the front-end looks like. It is made up of a Socket/Express/Node backend and a React frontend.
