Using the Computer Lab as a target might be good. We do have an open format map of the building:

There is also a useful API that can be used for Cambridge-wide applications based on an open map of the University:

Current idea under discussion:
Communication in a Crowd of People - Simulating crowds and their behaviour as a group and the individuals within is of great relevance to the safety and security domains. It is well known that information can go viral on the Internet through social media and the like. We would be interested in a project that studied viral behaviour on the Internet and investigated whether similar factors could be at play in a crowd of people in the real world, ideally leading to a demonstration/simulation.
