Collision Avoidance System

Hello All,

Firstly, I am designing a wing collision avoidance system for my final year project at university. I have some help from a small aerospace design firm, however it is limited as it is such a small company they are always very busy. The system design for this stage for my project is going to be based on the config of a 737-700/-800, there is a single aircraft I have quite a lot of data for, however documents (IPC, AMM, SRM etc) can only do so much for me.

I have considered many systems and architectures with odd locations and many have been deemed unsuitable. I am currently looking at putting a device into the wing tip. Now here is my problem, I am struggling to find data, images and general space availability inside the wing/wing tip of a 737-700/-800, the layout of the lighting and equipment etc.

My search has lead me here, I was wondering if you ladies and gentlemen would be able to assist me in acquiring some more data on such a topic, in the form of images, documents, experience and knowledge etc.

Many Thanks to you all and any help is kindly appreciated,
