Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning have tremendous potential to help address climate change by making systems more efficient, enabling new solutions, and accelerating the energy transition. Some of the…
Object Detection and Distance Estimation for Safe Navigation of Autonomous Vehicles: This project develops computer vision and deep learning models to detect and classify objects like pedestrians, vehicles, traffic signs…
Designing and building a smart home prototype – For their capstone project, computer engineering students designed and built a functioning smart home prototype that integrated several internet-connected devices to control…
Start early and plan ahead. One of the most important things students can do is to get an early start on their capstone project and plan it out properly from…
There are several important steps that policymakers and researchers can take to help ensure AI systems are developed and applied fairly without discrimination or unfair bias. One of the most…
For engineering capstone projects, there are often requirements beyond just developing a project prototype or conducting research. Many engineering programs require capstone projects to include elements of project planning, documentation,…
Team Member Commitment and Motivation: Capstone projects are often long term with sporadic milestones. This can lead to team members losing motivation and commitment over time as the finish line…
Engineering Capstone Projects: Some common engineering capstone projects include designing and building automated systems, vehicles, machines or prototypes. For example, mechanical engineering students may work on projects like: Designing and…
