I got an idea.

Add custom gesture recognition to touchpad and touchscreen driver module
Difficulty: Medium
Skills Required: C
Description:
This project can allow user to create custom gesture for special function, like turn off notebook, start a speciel application, and so on. we need a GUI for user to config and input the gesture, and
add the recognition code to synaptics module or a new created module.


This can also be potentially useful on the desktop with at least this one type of mouse: http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/en-us/p/touch-mouse It has the matrix of sensors and there is an open source adapter for it allowing to extract https://github.com/mcuelenaere/mstouchmouse/ finger touch picture.

If the gesture recognition, as an algorithm and gui, is properly implemented (as a user-land library), it is very easy to set up such mouse as a gesture based keyboard.
Microsoft driver for it does just that on Windows.
