Here's a new final year computer science, IT engineering project idea: A Webcam based credit card reader. I'm quite sure this hasn't been picked up by engineering students before (at least in your college 😀 ) so you've an opportunity to do something 'new'. The idea is to develop a webcam software that will be able to get the inputs from the webcam when the user holds his/her credit card in front of the cam. This idea could be incredibly useful in online payments systems!
There would be several challenges in this project: -
1. Maintaining the security of the credit card information.
2. Making sure that the software works with majority of webcams with various resolutions - VGA to HD
3. Interfacing the webcam with the software and related ecommerce websites.
So, there you go - you have the basic idea and you're free to develop it. If you need more information or want to expand this idea, feel free to ask your questions in this discussion thread 😀
