FYP

Currently going into 4th year in A comp sci degree, and i have the dreaded FYP ahead. I'm fucking STUMPED for ideas though.

The languages i'm comfortable in are C++, Ruby, Java, Php and c#(.net).

Any ideas as to what to make/do?

Also, how fashionable is Augmented Reality these days, and what would be some cool projects in it?

I'm sure a few /prog/riders are in the same boat, so you'd be helping out a few bros here

It doesn't matter how fashionable something is. Though you could make a program that takes a bitmap and recognizes objects in it. Then after that's good then try that with video (with a webcam). But that'd take quite a while.

You also might want to look at the Cell processor. You can download linux on the playstation 3 and write some programs on there. Use your imagination.

A compiler would be interesting (you'd learn alot too, probably). Not an operating system though (too much effort for little profit).
