What gets wasted, damaged, delayed, or made unsafe when nobody notices?
A field guide for picking a final-year project
A curated shelf of AI + IoT concepts built around a specific loss, risk, or frustrating task — not just another sensor dashboard.
Every card is framed around a real user and a decision your prototype can improve. Use the three checks below before falling in love with a technology.
What gets wasted, damaged, delayed, or made unsafe when nobody notices?
Sense the condition, make a recommendation, then take a small useful action.
Pick a context you can observe: a lab, shop, street, farm, or university building.
Filter by the world you want to improve. Save the few that make you curious, then compare them with your constraints.

Shortlist a few concepts, then pressure-test them against access to hardware, data, users, and a place to test. A smaller scope with a real user beats a grand promise every time.
Talk to the person who experiences the problem before building.
Build a safe test rig instead of waiting for a disaster.
Choose one metric: time, waste, accuracy, energy, or response.
