You can get a file with the specifications of all the projects from our file repository. Projects can be developed individually or by a group of two people. Public presentation during the last two lab sessions of the lab is a must if you want to opt to the highest mark, peer assessment will be used then.
As I mentioned in the classroom, I am open to other proposals from you regarding personal projects you have been doing. Please note you need me to agree on your proposal before proceeding with it.
