I'm looking for some ideas for a (college level) senior project I can do for EE. I would like do something audio/video related, but rather do something focusing more or all on video. I'm more into solid state type of electronics (signal processing, etc) and would like to stay away from something that uses a motor or any mechanical parts.
But yeah, anyway im looking for any ideas you guys might have, with alot of challenge to it. Any idea you throw out is fine, just looking for a bit of direction.
As of right now I'm thinking about doing a scan converter type device. One that takes in a multiple types of signals (composite, s-video, component, rgb, etc), and outputs analog rgv or dvi/hdmi at any selected resolution/frequency. Designed for hookup for either a computer monitor or HDTV. Also with auto-sensing inputs if you have mulitple devices hooked up to the scan converter.
Thats the direction im heading in right now but would like some more ideas. I'm thinking the scan converter won't have enough challenge to it for a college level project. Maybe you guys can suggest any features I can add to it to make it more challenging?
I'm open to any ideas and other project ideas besides the scan converter.
Thanks.
