Last month on StackOverflow shows a lot of proposals :-) Just go with `i2c` tag and see what people are trying to enable (some sensors have been mentioned several times in different QnA). Also getting rid of MRAA/UPM is a good idea (moving them to libiio / libgpiod and moving sensor drivers to kernel). On top of that there are (plenty I think) projects on GitHub regarding drivers in user space which, in my opinion, should be rather in kernel. Just my two cents. > Rohit, anyway, since the student application period ends soon, you can just think of one component type (e.g., ADC, DAC, etc.), create your plan accordingly and submit your proposal. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
