beginner-level embedded systems projects?


a tyro cave came me morning asked ideas an embedded systems (ideally hardware+software design) digest finished unbroken 6 months so. he's freshman, inexperienced, nonetheless proclivity learn separate right direction. purpose completing project, besides removing feet soppy electrical/computer engineering mechanism science, resume some-more appealing terms snagging an internship summer '09.



my doubt is:




  1. what good whole resources know rudimentary hardware, microcontroller, basement firmware/software is, given small trust any above? possess credentials rather unhelpful here, i scholastic lot by both grave training (which he's prying in, nonetheless wants started now) by internship i got my amateur year by nepotism ;-) (which wants do, nonetheless there's chicken-and-egg problem)


  2. what engaging digest ideas suitable scope?




some initial ideas:




  • a jeopardy-style diversion light adult an led, actor pulpy his/her symbol initial winner, maybe microcontroller keep measure integrate 7-segment displays.

  • a tinge generator (user sets dump switches (or some-more ambitiously, presses keys ps2 keyboard) set frequency), microcontroller uses d/a converter cost sinusoid frequency

  • some kind little sensor (maybe warmth sensor dorm room served adult law an rss feed). web-based aspect digest finished significantly easier rabbitcore .



all suggestions microcontroller kits great! i unequivocally conclude additional digest ideas (i.e. "the tyro should settlement x) well. thanks!
