Re: DSP Design Ideas for an Undergrad

So, does anyone have any ideas for interesting things I might be able to
design that are DSP related? (Or even communications related, if you can
think of something really interesting) I thought about designing some audio
filters or something like that (I had the idea of using one person's voice
as a reference in order to filter another person's voice and make it sound
like the first person.. but I'm guessing this might be too challenging?) I
just wanted to know what others thought.

These are undergrad projects that have been done in the recent past,
they might give you some idea:

Head-Related Transfer Functions

Real-Time Pitch Correction for the Human Voice

Most are software-based and were reasonably successful.
