It is not human intelligent; it is an AI whose implementation requires rigorous machine learning. This is not so easy to apprehend in ahead of time that the driver is heading an accident (probably) and an alarm should be generated for the base station.
Given that you have a hard deadline for this, I like the idea of a somewhat nebulous project where you can add more functionality as time permits. Consider Blynk too. In a similar vein, a greenhouse has the advantage that you're not just sensing and reporting but controlling too.
In development terminology of course, you can replace the words nebulous or ill-defined with 'Agile'. Put a backlog together and you can run ten one week sprints.

@wildbill is onto something. A countertop greenhouse with novel approaches to monitoring and distribution of nutrients and water is a fine project, and 11 weeks gives you time to actually have some plants growing, especially if you go for microgreens and keep your tomato plants trimmed to bonsai size.
My greenhouses have fish (tilapia, salmon, and catfish), for your timeframe I'd recommend a dozen fingerling tilapia.
A countertop greenhouse also allows for a good paper to be written about urban sustenance farming.
Interesting stuff - do you have anything you can share on what you did?
Finishing a year-round greenhouse by the end of the summer. I will make a thread about it then.
In general though:
- The fish eat pellets made from dried chicken meal, leftovers from the hens, which is high in lipids and protein. Also includes cucumber skins from the garden and alfalfa from the front yard, bound with olive oil and dried. They also eat some of the aquatic plants that I grow with them.
- Their water is constantly filtered using gravity silt filtering. The water is UV treated to eliminate active bacteria. It then goes to the hydroponics for the greens as well as the soil grown plants.
- The solid waste is used to condition the outdoor soil.
- The wastewater from the greenhouse plants is sent back to the fish and helps them.
- Fish grow big and I put them in sub-freezing water to put them to sleep and die peacefully before cleaning them.
- The remains are used to make fish meal with is part of what's fed to the hens, along with alfalfa, dried worms, and dried feed corn.
- Egg shells are used to raise seedling plants
- Rinse and Repeat
It's about 90% efficient, so most of the meat and produce is basically free.
For OP's project I'd add solar panels and grow lights as well.
Charles Pigg measured the 7-DOF of the upper limb for his master of science at BYU 2017 using video camera and post recording analysis. You could do the same with 3 BNO085 and an ARM based microcontroller.

I was thinking of some IOT method to monitor the health of an elderly patient. I've seen some sensors that claim to be able to detect a fall.
Could include some stationary sensors and perhaps a wrist sensor.
Must be easy to wear, washable..... etc. As gross as it might seem there are elderly patients that need diapers.
I've seen a couple of projects based on this concept that give the patient some kind of waist mounted airbag. They have spent quite a lot of time and money trying to get it working and although they have been somewhat successful, false positives abound. It's a seriously hard problem.
I have an idea for project that I might work on "someday", It's more involved than most of my Arduino projects but it's probably not master-degree level:
An audio power meter...
Audio is one of my hobbies, I never know how much power I'm REALLY using, and modern amplifiers almost never have a meter. If you can find an audio power meter they are not cheap.
Usually I only build something that I can't buy, or something that I can build cheaper. In this case, I'd be building it the way I want rather than settling for what I could find on the market.
And of course, I build stuff that I'm interest in. I built an audio related project for my Bachelor's senior project, but it's outdated today.
BTW - A regular multimeter doesn't respond fast-enough for audio program peaks. It's easy to measure the voltage of a constant test-tone and calculate wattage, but we are usually interest in the peaks with normal music or other program material. I would want to display the peaks and the smoothed RMS power.
I'd probably use a Raspberry Pi because I'd want a "nice display" with bar-graph and numerical displays. Maybe a high-resolution 7-inch touchscreen or something like that,
It would probably take ME more than 11 weeks because I've never used a Raspberry Pi, and I couldn't work on it full-time, and I wouldn't want to work in it full time!
But that's probably too easy... It's mostly software and the "only tricky part" is since I'd want to cover a wide range it would have to be auto-ranging, and I'd want it respond fast. I'd use multiple attenuators into multiple ADCs, all reading simultaneously and then use the "right one" for the calculations and display.
I'm not sure If I'd make it stereo or multi-channel for surround. For a bachelor's or master's project, I'd propose 8-channels (for 7.1 channels) or maybe more. I only have 5.1 setup, but that seems like to many wires to connect "permanently", Maybe 2-channels plus the subwoofer would be a good compromise... Or hardware capability of at-least 8-channels with software configurability for fewer channels (so I don't see unused channels on the display).
So it was an ARM for an arm?
You could take this project, a speaking clock, and turn it into a general announcement system, say for information on a railway platform where sentences are built up by combining pre-recorded words: Arduino ESP8266 Speaking Clock.
You could also take the ideas from this project which is a pair communicating radio nodes which are synchronised for low power operation and extend it so a number of slave nodes can talk to one master: Synchronised NRF24L01+ Transceiver Pair for Low Power Operation Using the ATtiny1614
very droll
station for the detection, identification and tracking of a super grave, a meteorite crossing the sky. with the function of tracking the coordinates of entry and exit from the visual field. it would be a question of using a camera interfaced with arduino for the calculations.
