At first I was concerned about not having any project ideas, but after browsing FabAcademy archives and other sites for insparation the problem became having too many ideas.I had several ideas for the final project icluding creating a fingerprint scanner that controls a lock, or a pet care enviornment to take care of pets for busy pet owners.
I finally settled (for now) on creating an arcade type claw machine. I think it's a fun interesting project that I would enjoy creating even though it involves a lot of work. I never managed to win anything of claw machines as a kid and always wanted one of my own.
