What would be your dream project?
-
I'm trying to think good thoughts while doing a little project, and I started to think about what my dream project would be. I would probably not thrive in a 10-person team, on a 50-person project, doing some piece of industrial software for an oil company, so it would have to be somewhat limited in scope. My dream project would be something to help the teacher and students in the classroom, actually use their computers for learning and not just note-taking and cute learning games. (Here in Norway laptops are standard equipment for 8th graders and above; though nobody actually uses a tenth the potential a computer has). What are you guys' dream projects?

My dream project will be to sleep too much, so that I can dream more about projects. :laugh: By the way, (an answer relative to your own question) I would provide a questionnaire to the teams. I would first of all consider taking some time to go to the teachers and ask them about their teaching manners, how they teach, what are their problems, what are problems of students (I would ask the students also). Then I would try to introduce computer, to solve this problem. Chances are that computer is just to going to increase the headache. So I won't bother making this project at all. :laugh:

I have many, but this article is one of them: Snapshot Running Processes With SeguroList, Part 1[^] Basically it's a whitelist project which allows you to take a snapshot of the EXEs running on your machine at any time -- it knows every dll loaded to support each exe also. Knowing What Is Different You can save the info as JSON and load it later, thus allowing you to do compares about what has changed since you last took a snapshot.

1. Robotics, or 2. robotic assistive exoskeleton, or 3. life-size quad-copter-like motorcycle

Restoring an old car to original condition. Perhaps a Jensen Healey or Interceptor or an older Lotus.

My dream project would be a hardware brain interface coupled with software that lets me understand the messages encoded in every "5.5 petabits, or 1 million gigabits, per cubic millimeter" [^] of my own DNA. Of course, a key problem that would have to be solved is how to back-up the illusion of "sanity," and restore it. cheers, Bill

Working on a project to document all the visual details of a road so that, once the road is driven once, the program can be used to highlight relevant changes in the road from day to day when it is driven again. Objective: Spot places where soil / pavement has been disturbed, trees have changed configuration, etc. in order to spot potential IED plants that could harm our troops. Some unusual people have this ability as part of their brains, but more average folk could use a head-up display in their vehicles that would allow them to spot an 8" artillery shell in a tree that is rigged to a pressure switch in the road to blow up whoever drives by. Defeating these sorts of IEDs would save a lot of lives, even including indigenous civilians.

Best reply of the lot. Worthy goal, achievable, and serious intent.

My Dream project would be to build course work grading system for teachers so that it collects not only the right and wrong answers, but the time spent on certain questions, as well as the association of the problems the students faced, in order to recommend specific focus by the teacher and the students. The ultimate goal being a near total virtualization of most classes so that you are in classes with people who are LITERALLY at your level of learning (think lab, more than class). Then utilize pair-programming lessons to pair-practice and work. To this day, I don't understand why nearly EVERY 2nd grade teacher is still creating a lesson plan for THEIR 2nd grade class. As if that has not been done. Open source, it, add to it, make it public, and allow parents and children alike to delve into it. WikiSyllabus I guess :-) Finally, I would work so that instead of just student teach, in order to get your certificate to teach, you had to improve this body of knowledge. Literally adding to approaches to help kids who are struggling, or approaches to help kids who are soaring soar faster.

This could have more uses than military, (though that's definitely a valid use). I could see the same kind of algorithm being used to analyze structural fatigue in bridges and other infrastructure, that is resource-intensive to detect by observation. First thing that pops into my head is how a prototype could be made with a Kinect 2 secondly, it's not that unrealistic to do. If you got the chops, you could write up a proposal and apply for funding for something like this. It is the kind of thing grad-students do, or what the guys at "Microsoft Research" do. You sir/ma'am, should tinker with this. It has great potential :-)

An invincible drone that would permanently pursue my ex pouring out rash inducing substances on her hea... wait ... am I saying this out loud?
I think that might be illegal in most countries in the world, but I can sympathize with you :cool:
