Hi Tiffany, It sounds like the geometry module might be of interest to you. I don't have much experience here but Chris Smith might (CCed). He might also have ideas on how this sort of idea might be formed into a GSoC project.
Units have come up at least couple times before, I don't think anyone has yet succeeded. I would search through the issues and see what people have tried and the discussion/questions that arose. Here is a search through our github issue tracker. https://github.com/sympy/sympy/search?q=units&ref=cmdform&type=Issues If you're up for some digging you could also search through the mailing list archives. In regards to understanding the current code either the mailing list or probably the chat system is your best bet.
