Computer engineering is a discipline that integrates several fields of electrical engineering and computer science required to develop computer hardware and software. It’s all the rage with the industry today. For students and hobbyists, we picked out some computer engineering projects from all over the internet. These are simple and interesting while providing a solution that could come in handy in real life scenarios.
Computer Engineering Projects: Event management system
Event management system (EMS) is a web-based application. It supports online registration and feedback evaluation for event training programs such as games, seminars, and workshops. It helps program attendees, organizers, authors and the reviewers in their respective activities. Development of event management system is an attempt to address the problems of managing registration forms, feedback forms and evaluating feedback. The main goal of this software is to give a working solution to store, manage and consolidate the registration data and the feedback data. It increases the scope of the report generation even by generating report over a period.

Unique ID management
UID Number is a number that would help the government to track down individuals and would make life far easier for citizens as they would not have to submit multiple documents each time they want to avail a new public, private and government service. This UID management system will contain personal details like name, sex, address, marital status, photo, identification mark and fingerprint biometric. UID will be a 12 digit alphanumeric number to provide more security. UID system manages a person’s needs in his/her lifespan by using a single UID i.e. the number is used in driving license, voter ID card, registration number in organisations, bank account, personal or professional details.

Web-based application for automatic timetable generation
The manual system of timetable preparation in colleges is very monotonous and time-consuming which results in either the same teachers ending up with more than one class at a time or a number of classes conflicting at the same classroom. Due to a non-automatic perspective, absolute utilization of resources has proven ineffective. In order to deal with such problems, a mechanized system with a computer-aided timetable generator is designed. The system takes different inputs including number of subjects, teachers, maximum lectures a teacher can conduct, priority of subject and topics to be covered in a week or a lecture. It then creates a feasible timetable for working days of the week, making excellent application of all resources in the best possible way.

Emotion-based music player
In this proposed system the facial expression extracted will generate a playlist automatically thereby reducing the effort and time involved in rendering the process manually. Testing of the system is done both on user dependent (dynamic) and user independent (static) dataset. An in-built camera captures the facial features. The accuracy of the emotion detection algorithm used in the system for real-time images is around 85-90%, while for static images it is around 98- 100%. The proposed algorithm on an average takes around 0.95-1.05 sec to generate an emotion-based music playlist. Thus, it yields better accuracy in terms of performance and computational time and reduces the designing cost, compared to the algorithms used in the literature survey.

Distorted fingerprint verification system
Fingerprint matching is affected by non-linear distortion introduced in fingerprint impression during the image acquisition process. The proposed system operates in three stages: alignment based fingerprint matching, fuzzy clustering, and classifier framework. First, an enhanced input fingerprint image is aligned with the template and match score is computed. To improve the performance of the system, a fuzzy clustering based on distance and density clusters the feature set obtained earlier. Finally, a classifier framework finds the cost-sensitive classifier produces better results.

Facial expression recognition
Facial Expression Recognition (FER) project is developed in C#, Microsoft visual studio .net. Robust recognition of facial expressions from images and videos is still a challenging task due to the difficulty in accurately extracting the useful emotional features. These features are often represented in different forms, like static, dynamic, point-based geometric or region-based appearance. Facial movement features including feature position and shape, are often caused by the movement of facial muscles during emotional expression.

Bar-code image generation library
This library is designed to provide a class for developers to use, that allows generation of barcode images from a string of data. This project allows for the generation of barcode images without the use of “barcode fonts”. The basic idea of what happens in this library is as follows: it first turns the data into a series of 1s and 0s representing equal-width bars and spaces. This string of binary information is then sent to a drawing method that converts it to an image representing the desired barcode. This approach allows for one common drawing method to be used on all symbols.

Secured mail system
To provide security to the organisational data, an organisation itself develops its own mailing system and the entire database resides at the organisation head. The employees of that particular organisation must communicate and with the admin through this mailing system only. As the database resides at the organisational head, he/she can check the database and the activities performed by the employees and whenever an employee leaves the organisation, the organisation admin can know the information and the transactions done by him. In this mailing system, we are using the encryption algorithm to provide authentication as well as the confidentiality to the data while transferring the data through the network.
