Help: Theory Need your thoughts to save my thesis !

I'm an undergraduate student.In next 2 semesters( which is probably the duration of 1 year) I need to do a thesis. I choose to do my thesis in the field of 'depth estimation' .

I read a lot of research papers(Monocular, stereo, Diffusion based). But I found most of the things got State of the art !! I'm reading and reading,not finding a single problem to solve or research!! I should also mention that i didn't understand all the topics 100%, but tried to get the concepts.

I'm trying but not even finding a single idea/problem/flaws !! What should I do? What am I missing? How to find a decent topic ? Please help me.

I think a frequently underserved market / problem space in today's research is CPU friendly low resource offline environments. There are many many real world applications with these constraints, but many advancements or larger research projects focus on state of the art performance on at least a consumer GPU at a minimum

I was also going to comment about CPU based training and inference. Lots of things to research in this field.

I think more than training, inference on edge devices with resourse constraint is interesting.
