CEBU, Philippines--Cell broadcasting is a common yet overlooked feature in today's mobile phones. A team of engineering students for La Salle Bacolod bagged the P500,000 top prize in the recent Smart SWEEP contest for a mobile application they created, which uses cell broadcasting to send disaster-related warnings to subscribers within affected areas. Team leader Delman Alagao explains how the application works. Video taken by INQUIRER.net reporter Lawrence Casiraya.
