   That would be an excellent goal indeed.

   But in order to make your proposal realistic, I would suggest giving
specific examples of 'correction' filters you intend to use/port.

   Having used part of the GStreamer API (on the application side) means
you're at least a little bit familiar, but this is going to require a
substantial amount of work to get to something functional.
   Therefore be very specific in your proposal about your
availabilities, deliverables, etc...

  The clock is ticking, less than a week left. You should start writing
your proposal on the soc website right now, so that mentors can comment
and give you feedback before the deadline,

  Best luck,
