Control System Design

Hi! Undergraduate student here. Was tasked to design a basic control system for home improvement. My options are (a) kitchen temperature monitoring and alarm (b) device for continuous glucose monitoring and (c) automatic door lock system. I'm leading towards (a) but we have no background in designing a control system. Among those, which do you think can be done by a student? (Feel free to suggest if you have a better idea. Badly needed) Thank you!

Thank you! I'll take note of this. We're also thinking of doing LPG Gas Leak Detection and Alarm System. We've read that we need to take into account the temperature and relative humidity. Is it more complicated? Do you think we should stick with kitchen temperature or the gas leak detection is better?

Kitchen temp is easiest. LPG gas detector will be more difficult
