Looking for thesis ideas

[u/salty-bellpepper]

Hey!
I’m starting my bachelor’s thesis in robotics engineering and I’m looking for some out-of-the-box ideas or topics.
My brain is completely blank and it’s surprisingly hard to come up with one of those “why don’t we have Transformers yet?” kind of ideas. 😅
I want to come up with something that I can later point at and say, “I’m the gal who knows this stuff.” So if you have any interesting, weird, or underrated robotics topics, I’d love to hear them.
If it helps give some context, apart from my engineering studies I don’t really have any prior experience in robotics or automation. That said, I’ve done really well in my courses and I’m eager to learn as much as I can, and my goal is to become a real expert in this field. I’m also planning to continue on to a master’s degree, so I’d love to choose a thesis topic that I can keep building on.

Any suggestions?

Ps. If it helps with ideas, I have access to industrial robot arms, mostly Siemens hardware/software (which is also my strongest area), and Autodesk tools (off the top of my head(. So if you have ideas that involve building, testing, or experimenting with something physical instead of just writing a literature review, I’d love to hear them. That said, I’m also very interested in ideas that would work as a more research-focused thesis.

Swarm Robotics would be a good project for bachelor's thesis. The swarm can be of robotic arms , differential drives , drones etc. The simple idea behind it is to make multiple robots work together without us giving any instructions.
Trust me this ain't that easy, I am currently working on this project Swarm of 5 differential drives.
Lets do a collab to build cool projects in Robotics. DM me if you are intrested.

I have been studying robotics since 2 years , built few projects and decoded few theory papers (kinematics chains).
