More business ideas for EIT class


I am currently researching artificial intelligence methodologies for a directed reading course and I have learned that there are artificial intelligence "engines".  I think it would be a wonderful idea to create an artificial intelligence engine of my own.  I could then sell the rights to this engine to game designers/companies (much like Unity3D or Unreal graphics engines).  I'm not sure how many AI engines are currently available or their technical capabilities.  I've been working with game development for some time now and I haven't seen an AI engine so that could indicate they are rare or that the demand for them is rare.  I think this would be a great project because it could grow in a modular fashion.  I could start with a simple engine and add to it as I grow in proficiency.  I could follow the Unity3D business model for deployment; a base engine that anyone can use for free and a full featured version that would be require some money flowing from the customer pockets to the company coffers.
