I Call Shotgun

Inspiration

We wanted to make an application that would be applicable to people on a road-trip, and that would keep people socially involved during a long journey.

What it does

The functionality currently is limited to people calling shotgun in the car, and all other users are notified.

How we built it

We used Java for the whole project, we did backer using tcp server sockets and frontend using swing.

Challenges we ran into

We ran out of time developing more features and found it difficult to have concurrent users.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We learned a lot and are happy with some of the threading we used in the project

What we learned

We learned more about frontend development and networking. We also learned how to work better on a team applying our skills to a project.

What's next for I Call Shotgun

We hope to implement a few more features that we were unable to during the weekend
