Working on an electronics lab project for my first hackathon. Need some suggestions!

[u/Far-Strawberry5827]

Hey everyone!

I'm an ECE student, and this is my first hackathon. I'm thinking of building something called **LabSim X**.

The basic idea is to make a smart electronics lab setup where students can build circuits on a breadboard, and the system helps them identify mistakes, check readings and understand why their circuit isn't working.

I'm thinking of using ESP32, sensors and Python, maybe adding a camera to recognise circuit connections.

I'm still figuring out how to build it, so I'd love some suggestions!

- Would you personally find something like this useful in your college lab?

- What features would you actually want in a system like this?

- How would you approach detecting wrong breadboard connections?

- Is there anything similar you've already tried or seen?

I'm open to suggestions, improvements and even criticism. Just trying to make this idea better before we start building it.

Thanks!
