- A practical science project can show how an electronic device benefits the overall well-being of society. This could be a project dissecting the practical application of flash-drives, digital music players and fiber-optic systems and how they relate and contribute to our society. The project can focus on electronics that thousands of people might overlook or take for granted on a daily basis.
- A battle-bot is an entertaining electronic that you could make. This is a kind of moving robot that is controlled remotely and fights against other battle-bots in gladiator-like fights. However, this project may take a good deal of engineering and electronics.
You could also make a video-game modulator or system that is functional in some way. The technology for old Atari systems is actually quite simple, for example. Students can also look into different ideas for how electronics can benefit entertainment in the future. - Career-centered projects can demonstrate an interest in a particular career while demonstrating your mastery of electronics. These can be projects like electronic metering data systems that are used in petrochemical industry projects or medical imaging systems, for increasing understanding of the body's function. The complexity of these systems means an analysis of these programs will require in-depth research and reading.
- Students can use their knowledge of computers and electronics to take apart any no longer functioning portable device and attempt to diagnose the reason the device stopped functioning. You can do this with electronics ranging from the simplicity of a tape-recorder to the complexity as a laptop. As an added dimension to this project, students can also try to repair the device to make it work again.
