Hello everyone,
I'm starting my first semester as a senior in January, and I will be taking senior design 1. I have a couple of ideas but would like to know which ideas would be feasible to complete in the amount of time ~(6-8 months). I'm highly interested in Optics and RF (anything in the microwave frequency range and above).
Idea 1 - Wireless Optical Communication System
- How should I go about transmitting my signal from a specific laser diode to a photodiode, while also being able to recover the bits of information?
- Am i in over my head for thinking of this idea?
Idea 2 - RFID Parking Space Detector
- This is due to the fact that at my school the mobile app we have for detecting the amount of parking spaces available in the parking decks are not very reliable, as they determine it based off of the amount of people who have swiped in using their ID's and don't take into the account the fact that there are days when the parking deck is free to everyone.
I'm open to all suggestions for both these ideas and new ideas along with any criticism you may have for me.
