Ideas for a Capstone Project.

We are currently brainstorming ideas for our capstone project. We need to integrate automation and network and security in our project. We came up with ideas like making a home automation with an ethernet shield so we can control it through the internet. Have you guys have any ideas for a project? Sorry mods if this kind of post is not prohibited here, you can take it down. Thank you so much!

Isn't a Capstone project one where you bring all your knowledge on various things, together into a whole ?

We need to integrate

  • automation and
  • network and
  • security

Then you say you are thinking about a project that would encompass all of those things.

What more are you looking for ?

security : motion sensors in a a house, too hot, too cold, leaking water, doors and windows open
automation : lights on as people move, off to save energy as they leave rooms,
thermostat integration that allows you to work late and not have to heat/cool when you are not home

seems like you have the plan.
