electrical engineering technology capstone project ideas

Most just want to finish and graduate, but I was unlucky enough to have a team member that insisted on doing something "novel" and that required a lot of research and/or developing new skills. Bad idea, let me tell you why.

I had one of those fuckers on my design team. Like every goddamn thing he pitched would have been a Master's thesis project in any engineering discipline except for Electrical/Computer Engineering. I wasn't having any of that shit, we sat there "brainstorming" until we agreed on an idea that no one liked, but was actually in the scope of the class.

My topic was: "Directional Control for Solar Panels" .

To optimize the efficiency of solar panels, they should always be pointed directly at the sun. Direct exposure to sunlight allows the panels to absorb the maximum amount of heat energy. The final project included the development of a controller that rotates the solar panel on a dual-axis. This design keeps the solar panel pointed at the sun and thereby maximizes the power generated.

This project also included taking into account hazardous conditions such as strong winds, heavy snowfall, and other inclement weather conditions.

True, I had to ask EduOwl.pro for help in preparing the report, but I do not regret it!

I built an optical communication system, blinking LED's to send data across the room. An earlier capstone did this with text, we attempted to send audio. We managed to do it but not at the desired range.

The biggest obstacle was one of my teammates. We split it into a Matlab signal processing section, a microcontroller section, and analog front-end section. One person responsible for each section. The analog person was a disaster. They lied about their progress, and even lied about which classes they had taken. Turns out we never had an analog person. Worst part was they were someone I was friends with and vouched for to be on the team. They were super nice but boy did they leave us in a bad position. Eventually my other teammate and I had to scramble to poorly handle their section. Group projects, am I right?

Beyond standard school group project bullshit, I'd advise you to go back and review concepts from your earlier classes when you hit a wall. Don't just bang at it with brute force when you get stuck. Take a breath, ask yourself "What type of problem is this? What am I not understanding?" and go back to your textbooks.

A huge problem I personally ran into was pride, which is strange considering my complete lack of self confidence. Group projects, am I right?

I thought any failure was because I wasn't trying hard enough. I couldn't admit that I forgot one of the ten thousand lessons I learned in 4 years of alcoholism. It's okay to say "Wow I forgot everything from my microelectronics class" and take a few days to review material. You're not supposed to be an expert. The whole point of the capstone project is to reinforce your learning and prove you can put the theory into practice.

Oh man dors that ever sound like a fun project idea though.

We did a RFID system and I researched and prototyped over the summer prior to the school year.

Start prototyping on a breadboard/solderboard as early as possible.

Your first PCB that you design and order WILL NOT work. I found that adding testing points at various nodes was helpful for troubleshooting.

Order backup PCBs and SMD components as you don't want to be set back because you fried too many components.

Don't stress too much about it and know that you are in the same boat as your peers.

Your first PCB that you design and order WILL NOT work.

This is universal, not limited to undergrads.

OSHPark has some great results in my experience. It's not worth trying to etch your own anymore.

This! I actually elected to develop equipment and processed to make my own two sized PCBs using presensitized copper clad boards. Wound up having a couple teams have me remake their boards because the ET lab could not keep up with demand. Maybe this is not a problem for your lab.

That being said, you don’t wanna have to waste time when it counts and there are things you can do to design your board for modifications.

-Use large package sizes for SMD components to make hand soldering easier -add empty spots for optional pull ups/pull downs/0ohm jumpers/series resistors -add test points everywhere! Physical soldered in hoop test points for signals you will be probing a lot like voltage rails. 100x100 headers for comms likes to attach logic analyzers. And 2mm pads on all other signals. -like test points, drop solder holes everywhere. Never know when you might need to jumper nets together with wires or inject DV voltage because your hand designed switching regular circuit didn’t work -bypass caps -often times ET labs can only do two sided PCBs which means polygon pours for GND and PWR. Do a good job of making sure the design is such that current loops are minimized. Use 0ohm resistors to jump over traces to get a more continuous gnd return path. -overside your power FETs, pay close considersations to gate drive and gate characteristics for any fast switching, be cautious of paralleled fet gates on high energy circuits -layout your board big and wide and space things out reasonably -use Saturn PCB toolkit for IPC based calculators -buy extra parts -learn some soldering tips

Ours did :-)

We had to build a rail gun...excuse me, “electromagnetic launcher”. We had limited funds and I think our biggest failure was shying away from things we perceived as difficult to fabricate. We had resources, if we had pursued them. That said, we built a prototype that functioned. Ablation was really problematic, as you might imagine.

Beware scope creep. Lock your scope in early and make sure it achievable

My team mate and I built an autonomous robot that raced towards a beacon, while running into cold cans, avoiding hot cans, and avoiding cinderblocks. We were greatly helped by getting a sensor package from a company in Belgium (Melexis) who organized this annual competition to showcase their sensors. They sent us a free pack of electronics.

I've had good luck getting samples from all kinds of vendors; Honeywell once sent me two $500 Hall-effect linear potentiometers. That was pretty sweet.

Spend more time in the lab than you think you have to. Get started early and if you have a breakthrough, perfect, you can take more time for other courses later.

For the presentations, and I can not stress this enough, get a tablecloth for the table and a bowl of wrapped candy. $5 at a dollar store could get you a cash prize. (We won second place in my year.)

I was EET and did mine solo but I designed and built a phase shifter guitar pedal with analog and digital components. take a listen here if you are interested

https://youtu.be/LCjus4VtTcE

My major design project was building an AM radio to out up WCCO in basement of the ER building. That was somewhat difficult and we had to use the building's pipe system as a make shift antenna for the circuit to work.

My senior design project was a DC current clamp meter. I design the instrumentation amplifier and etched my own PWB for the project. Everything was surface mount. Used hall effect sensors and ferrite core to sense the magnetic field. Worked pretty well.

My volunteer design project was the solar car project that raced from Boulder, CO to the Indy 500 race track. That was the best project for learning.

Can you give me your project design & report?

did a capstone that encompased using a microphone array to determine a sounds direction, a bunch of dsp to verify the sound was what we were looking for, a servo controlled speaker horn, and a ultrasonic parametric speaker for directional audio. basically a mini autonomous LRAD sound canon that ran off lipo and a solar panel.

some of the problem is at a certain point you have to stop brainstorming, commit to an idea, and just pull the bandaid and get to it. The sooner you do this, the sooner you'll figure out what you actually need and are actually capable of accomplishing.

Don't be afraid to go big though, and always go to your mentors/professors and ask their opinion.

It's hard to stay under budget. You're probably going to spend a ton out of pocket. But you can also reach out to local vendors and see if they're willing to sponsor you, donate product. It also doubles as part of your business research and goes into your report.

DO AS MUCH AS YOU CAN UP FRONT AS POSSIBLE! Spend nights and weekends on campus, in the lab, with your team. SHOW UP. I say this from personal experience. 3/4ths of the way through my capstone my gallbladder exploded and took me out for 2 weeks(almost killed me.) Fortunately, my team was more than willing to put in the effort without me there because I had front loaded so much work, helped all of them on their portions, and my shit was almost done and well documented. good will goes a long way.

Hardest parts are always team dynamics, getting people to deliver on time what they said they could do, and people trying to ride the coat tails of others. Had one guy on my team senior year of EE degree who literally didn't know how to power an led, why you would want to use a current limiting resistor, or to use ohms law to find the value. ass hat was getting a minor in business and was only doing EE because of the promised paycheck. I threatened to stab him. I still want to stab him. Other assclown was in the middle of a divorce(surprising no one as he kept trying to bang younger college girls), and basically useless.

A good capstone project should be easy to explain in a resume and job interview. Since that is when you will benefit from the effort. After your first job no one will ever ask again. If it's too esoteric your effort is wasted.

The best ones are marketable ideas, things people could picture buying or someone else using.

Avoid anything that handles fluids or is under pressure. It will leak at the wrong time.

If allowed use commodities parts, breadboards, Arduino or RaspPi. A custom PCB is extra work.

My team of 5 built a water quality data logger. It needed to float in the water body it’s testing, be waterproof and capable of running on its own power for at least a year. It takes a sample every 30 min and stores it to an SD card. Our budget was initially $100, but we quickly bartered for $500 unit cost. We used an off the shelf waterproof enclosure that we modified to house our electronics (including solar panel). Our microcontroller would essentially sleep for most of the time, then “wake” to take a reading and save it along with a time stamp. This included some error handling and an accelerometer to determine if it’s upside down.

I was in charge of project management and the power system to an extent. For a 5 EE team we were having trouble finding enough EE content for everyone to justify during the project, and we were forced to learn about some ME stuff since it wasn’t a pure electronics project.

We got really lucky in that our group was motivated to get this done for the most part. It’s definitely a marathon with every week needing a report and big document deadlines looming ahead. Completing the coursework is supposed to give you an idea for how development cycles work.

Also big note, we had to test the device in water for a whole 30 days. We were fortunate to be able to start testing right as we were all sent home for COVID. We were able to deploy in a university owned natural spring, and check up on it multiple times despite not being able to go to campus. Luckily, our enclosure held tight and our device took data for the most part. One of our sensors started failing and we had to talk about it in our final presentation. It sucked for a lot of groups that weren’t able to do anything after COVID shutdowns started.

Was the waterproof enclosure a Ziploc container? Because I know some guys who needed a waterproof container for a data logger for a PV system and they just got those glass clamp-lid ziplock containers. Wasn't pretty but it worked!

A lot of good advice here, but I'll add something that would have helped our group immensely!

Most capstone projects have sponsors (either commercial or university researchers) who may have a bad case of the scope-creeps and/or change-of-heartitis. After EVERY meeting with your sponsor, write an email with what was discussed and any details of the project (requirements, ordering parts, campus resources, etc) and cc the TA your group was assigned (if you have one that is). This has the initial benefit of clarifying any confusion swiftly, but more importantly you have everything in writing. Then when you're giving a presentation and your sponsor is like "the prototype is way too big!" or "I did not give permission to order those parts, so I won't pay for them!", you can go back and point out that you all agreed to those decisions. By cc'ing your TA, they can advocate for you in those situations and aren't blindsided by the misunderstanding.

If you have a two semester capstone course (1st semester usually documentation, planning, designing, etc and 2nd semester usually fabricating, testing, etc), make sure you and your group just blast through as much of the 1st semester stuff and be ready to start ordering parts come November/December. Have a long weekend? Your team better be working on that project EVERY. DAMN. DAY. of that long weekend. The more you can get done in the first semester, the more time you can spend testing and building, making your last semester at school a lot less stressful.

Lastly, PCBs never work the first time you get them and they take a lot of time to troubleshoot and order new batches. On PCBs, like others have mentioned, place test points and use zero resistors so you can easily access pins or reroute PCB traces.

Find your team before the semester. Don't work with your dumb friend just because they are your friend, they are still dumb. You also don't want to get stuck with a wildcard that turns out to just be a pain in your ass and totally useless.

Have backup plans. Have backups for your backups. Some examples from my own project:

We were using new (to us) BLE chips to do wireless communication between a Zedboard and our mobile PCB. In case we couldn't figure the new chip out, we integrated the standard XBee module footprint with our BLE footprint so we could pivot to a well understood part.

A core feature of our project was determining a mobile board's location via RFID. In the assorted PCB's, I included part placements for a backup plan that used ATTiny85's to flash IR LED's in a UART-esqe manner to indicate position. We ended up using this because the guy in charge of the RFID was a pain in the ass and totally useless. It would have been an incredible amount of work to un-fuck the project if this plan had not been baked in during the initial schematic capture and PCB layout.

Breakout unused pins to DNP pull-up and pull-down resistors. Especially pins on a microcontroller. The extra hour total of schematic and layout could save you literal days of mod'ing a board you've made mistakes on.

If some aspect of your design is complete and working, great! Make/plan a demo for it in case your team fails final integration. Make the demo materials soon after completing the feature since you certainly won't have time to do it when you are in the middle of failing to integrate your project two days before your deadline. This could be the difference between your final presentation being US Airways Flight 1549 or being the Hindenburg.

13) Plus-Minus 5V Supply From 9V Battery

Op-amps require a dual-polarity supply for proper operation. When working with a battery supply, it becomes difficult to get a dual power supply for the op-amps.

Presented here is a simple circuit that provides ±5V from a 9V battery. This is one of the most interesting projects among Electrical Engineering Project Ideas. Op-amps require a dual-polarity supply for proper operation. When working with a battery supply, it becomes difficult to get a dual power supply for the op-amps.

This project is available at Plus-minus 5V Supply From 9V Battery

14) Infrared Motion-Sensing Relay Switch

This project is designed for use with all kinds of medium-power automobile/domestic 12V DC loads. It is a simple solid-state relay (SSR) switch, controlled by a standard passive infrared ( PIR ) motion sensor module.

A PIR sensor is an electronic device that can measure IR light radiating from objects in its field of view. Apparent motion is detected when an IR source with one temperature (such as a human being) passes in front of an IR source with another temperature (such as a wall). The PIR sensor module, centered on a PIR sensor, has elements made of crystalline material that generates an electric charge when exposed to IR radiation.

This project is available at Infrared Motion-Sensing Relay Switch

15) Low-cost LPG Leakage Detector

The circuit for an LPG leakage detector is readily available in the market, but it is extremely expensive and usually based on a microcontroller (MCU). This project presents a low-cost LPG detector that you can build a circuit easily.

The main objective of the circuit is to detect LPG leakage anywhere. At the heart of the circuit is dual comparator IC LM393 (IC2). It is used to compare two different voltages, in this case, reference voltage and MQ-6 gas sensor output voltage.

This project is available at Low-Cost LPG Leakage Detector

16) Low-Cost Dusk-Dawn Controller

This dusk-dawn controller is built around a light-dependent resistor among other components. The common battery supply is used for operating the circuit as well as for load, that is, for power LED/small inverter circuits. Resistors work as voltage dividers and current limiters in the circuit. LEDs are used as circuit deactivation indicators. An n-channel MOSFET is used for the switching action of an LED light.

This project is available at Low-Cost Dusk-Dawn Controller

17) Auto Power Switching Mains, Solar Inverter, or Generator

This project is based on the AEIOU heuristic framework of the Design Engineering Approach. Design for Performance, Safety, and Reliability is ensured in terms of switching modules. Design for Ergonomics and Aesthetics is ensured in terms of Priority set by the user regarding the availability of Power Source. Design for Manufacturability and Assembly is ensured in terms of Generator, Inverter, and Solar Plates.

Also, based on choice and availability, different circuits using Eagle can be worked upon.

This project is available at Auto Power Switching Mains, Solar Inverters, or Generator

18) Signal Generator and Inverter Using NE555 Timers

Often we require a squarewave signal generator with adjustable frequency, almost equal high and low output pulses, and adjustable amplitudes. Here we present a simple, useful, and low-cost signal generator built around NE555 timers. Using external switches, you can control or select frequency ranges as per your requirements.

This project is available at Signal Generator and Inverter Using NE555 Timers

19) Configurable RS232 to TTL to I2C Adapter

RS232 signals cover a much longer distance than standard TTL and I2C signals. These signals have better noise immunity as well. RS232 is a well-known standard supported by many popular ICs and therefore is still widely used. Sometimes we want to send TTL and I2C signals over a longer distance. This project describes how these signals can be extended through RS232 lines.

This project is available at Configurable RS232 to TTL to I2C adapter

20) Vibration Activated Smart CRO Probe

This is a simple, low-cost, energy-saving, and device-saving circuit for an electronics lab, service center, electronics workshop, or wherever a CRO is in use. Generally, in a repair station, a CRO is used for a very short time. But in most cases, the user fails to switch off the CRO immediately after use.

The service engineer mostly concentrates on faults rather than noticing whether the CRO is on or off. A vibration sensor turns the CRO off when the probe is idle for a specified amount of time.

This project is available at the Vibration Activated smart CRO probe

21) 4 Channel Multi-mode Audio Amplifier

Sometimes we need configurable multichannel amplifiers for experiments or for use in offices or schools. Here is a project based on TDA1554Q, configured for multi-mode functions with four-channel outputs. It has four channels and each channel can provide around 11W over a load of 2 ohms and around 6W over a load of 4 ohms.

The circuit will also work with loads of 4 ohms to 16 ohms. The gain of each channel is fixed at 20dB in single-channel mode and 26dB in BTL mode.

This project is available at 4 channel multi-mode Audio amplifier

22) Design and analysis of single-stage amplifier using C++

Many formulae are required to calculate the parameters involved in a circuit of a transistor-based audio amplifier. Some of these values involve resistors, coupling capacitor, bypass capacitor, power consumption, and the current flowing through different components. A good amount of time is required to calculate such parameters even with a regular calculator. Using a C++ program, all the parameters can be calculated in a fraction of a second.

This project presents a single-stage transistor audio amplifier that requires a total of 19 formulae to obtain the values of components and analyze the circuit.

This project is available at Design and Analysis of Single-stage Amplifier using C++

23) Four-channel Video and Audio Sequencer

This next project is a simple circuit for switching your CCTV camera outputs sequentially. It switches four video and audio channels sequentially, one at a time. It is built around a 555 timer few other components. The timer is configured as an astable multi-vibrator.

A single-side PCB of the four-channel video and audio sequencer is provided along with the component layout. After assembling the circuit on the PCB, enclose it in a suitable plastic box.

This project is available at a Four-channel video and audio Sequencer

24) Automated USB-controlled Power Switch

Power for TV and set-top box (STB) is derived from a common switchboard. The switched-mode power supply (SMPS) of the TV continues to draw a small amount of power from the mains and the STB is not switched off when you switch off the remote. This next project presents a circuit that can control the main power of an LED TV and the DTH STB. It also protects the devices from harmful initial surges when the power comes back after a power failure.

This project is available at Automated USB-controlled Power Switch

25) 1kW Sine Wave Inverter

An inverter provides power backup for mains-based appliances in the event of a power failure. Most of the inverters available in the market have complicated circuit designs and are not very economical. Some of them produce a square-wave output, which is undesirable for inductive loads. This project presents a simple inverter circuit that produces 50Hz quasi-sine-wave output using a single IC CD4047 and some discrete components making it a very cost-effective solution.

This project is available at 1kW sine wave Inverter

26) Four Frequency Generator

There is a need for TTL and CMOS signals by stable frequency sources for the development, testing, and maintenance of digital and analog electronic circuits. These sources are also useful for fast checking of oscilloscopes, probes, multimeters, frequency meters, and other measurement equipment. This project proposes a circuit that produces fixed frequencies of 4MHz, 6MHz, and 10MHz and adjustable square-wave with variable frequencies from around 10Hz to more than 100kHz.

This project is available at 4 Frequency Generator

27) Programmable 3-Phase Controller

A programmable time switch is useful in designing an automatic on/off controller for 3 phase electric motor. This next project proposes a system with two programmable time switches for setting the starting and stopping times of the motor. Two control circuits interface with the start/stop switches of the 3-phase motor starter. There is a provision for setting days of the week for the controller to function as well.

This project is available at Programmable 3 phase Controller for ON/OFF moto r

28) High Power LED Stroboscope

A stroboscope is a convenient and accurate enough instrument to measure the speeds of rotating objects in homes or industries. One can use it to find the speed of fans, motors, or any other rotating object. It is a flashing light that provides sharp light pulses at a variable rate. An object rotating with a frequency matching the pulsed light is observed as stationary.

This project is available at High Power LED Stroboscope

29) Password-Based Circuit Breaker

A circuit breaker protects electrical circuits from damage n case of overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to detect a fault condition and interrupt current flow. The system uses an 8-bit microcontroller of the 16f877A family. An EEPROM stores the password and is easily changeable. The password is entered through a keypad and a relay opens or closes the circuit breaker, which is indicated by a lamp.

This project is available at Password based circuit breaker

30) Over/Under Voltage Protection of Electrical Appliances

Presented here is an under/over-voltage protection circuit that protects refrigerators as well as other appliances from under & over-voltage. The operational amplifier IC LM324 (IC2) is used here as a comparator.

This project is available at Over/Under Voltage Protection of Electrical Appliances

This project is available at DC Panel Meter using Arduino

32) Multi-Status Indicator Using Single RGB LED

The monitoring system in battery chargers, water-level indicators , etc. uses LEDs to indicate the status of certain conditions. Presented here is a multiple status indicator circuits that use a single RGB LED for seven different indications.

This project is available at Multi-Status Indicator Using Single RGB LED

33) Simple Low Power Inverter

Here is a simple low-power inverter that converts 12V DC into 230-250V AC. It can be used to power very light loads like window chargers and night lamps, or simply give shock to keep intruders away. The circuit is built around just two ICs, namely, IC CD4047 and IC ULN2004 .

This project is available at Simple Low Power Inverter

34) Power-Saving Relay Driver

n many circuits, the switching action is performed by a relay, which in turn activates an external load. The power consumed by the relay may be unsuitable for battery-power system applications. Here is a simple solution using some inexpensive components to considerably save power.

This project is available at Power-Saving Relay Driver

35) Automatic Water Pump Controller

Here’s an automatic water pump controller circuit that controls the water pump motor. The motor gets automatically switched on when water in the overhead tank (OHT) falls below the lower limit.

This project is available at the Automatic Water Pump Controller

36) Mobile Cell Phone Charger

This is a circuit for a mobile cellphone charger that uses three NiCd cells or eight pencil cells to charge the battery connected at the output terminals.

This project is available at Mobile Cellphone Charger

37) Generate Power Using Microturbine

Presented here is the Hydropower Generation circuit that generates power from a water pipe in a building using a microturbine. The generated electricity can be used to charge batteries, which can be used for emergency lighting or other such purposes. The microturbines produce kinetic energy and which in turn helps in Power Generation (Electricity).

What is the difference between capstone project and thesis?

The chances are you already know that a thesis is also an important paper for students who are about to finish their education and pursue a diploma. Is there a difference between a thesis and a capstone project? It is indeed!

The main difference between these papers is that your capstone design projects electrical engineering is not theoretical, it is a practical project that addresses a specific issue in your field. It means that you should analyze your industry, i.e. electrical engineering, and find a narrow, practical topic, a challenge that you should overcome. When it comes to a thesis, it is primarily a theoretical paper where you define a hypothesis and work with various sources to prove it.

Why are capstone projects that important for electrical engineering students?

A capstone project is usually intended to check the students’ abilities to think critically, analyze fundamental concepts, communicate with people, cooperate, etc. It means that this project helps you to show off and demonstrate your knowledge and skills that will help you set up for a future career.

To be honest, you’ll look through many capstone project ideas for electrical engineering to find the best one. So, ensure that you have enough time and decide on your priorities. For example, if you just need to complete this project, and you’ll forget about it exactly after the submission, choose the easiest topic. But if you have some ambitions, and you’re going to use this paper as a part of your resume or portfolio, you have to dive deeper.

What problems in electrical engineering for capstone can you face?

Looking for interesting electrical engineering capstone ideas and working on this paper, you’ll surely face some challenges. We receive a lot of students’ requests and we know what problems you have to deal with.

Lack of time

The first thing you should know is that this project is pretty voluminous. You can’t come up with an A-level capstone in a few days. You need to identify milestones and start in advance.

If you understand that you don’t have enough time, hire a professional who will help you to meet the deadline.

Unclear requirements

Your university background likely taught you that the task should be clear. If you don’t understand what your professor wants from you, you can’t follow these expectations. So, before you start working on your paper, you need to come up with electrical engineering capstone proposal suggestions — brief descriptions of your future work. It is necessary to ensure that you’re on the same page and to get valuable feedback from your mentor.
