Final year, huh?

Seems to me making a good case for why you did whatever you finally  
do is more important than making it work. The difference is whether  
you are learning how to think and solve problems or if you are simply  
learning how to turn screws and push buttons.

TinyOS? Says you are already decided upon prebuilt motes or mites or  
whatever they are called. Should be lots of existing code floating  
around for reading light sensors and controlling light bulbs. Maybe  
you should look for something more challenging.

Why don't you try something challenging such as taking Apnote AVR309  
and rewriting it into an avr-gcc library under a BSD-ish license?

Then use it to create a light under USB control.
