r/computervision - Ideas for a CV project

I have similar experience to you (very new to computer vision), but here's a few ideas off the top of my head: Some form of 3D mapping for autonomous vehicles like seen in this video. It uses a cool technique called SLAM. This is probably way beyond either of our scope but if you want a large project to work towards, this is an idea. An objectively easier idea may be implementing already established techniques such as object recognition and/or tracking (traffic signs or people in a picture/video), nothing is wrong with working on already solved problems imo. Also consider checking out the AWS DeepRacer scholarship challenge, maybe by participating you can figure something out.
