Sleep-related breathing disorders, such as obstructive sleep apnea, can be life threatening. Although solutions
exist to treat these disorders, like Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) and oral appliances including
Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs), there are several issues relating to cost, comfort, and convenience
with the products that are on the market today.

At Mortgauge, we want to make it easier for Canadians to build wealth as homeowners. Through this project, we will research and develop enhancements to our Payout Evaluator tool in order to further empower our users to act on opportunities to save on mortgage rates or leverage their home equity to build wealth. We will then build out an API framework that enables us to amplify the reach of these insights in collaboration with our referral partners by making our tools easily integratable into their infrastructure.

This project explores the development of new media and technology to aid speech-language pathologists (SLPs) specializing in voice therapy. Existing vocal therapy resources lack effective game interactivity and compelling character-driven narratives, both of which are known to increase motivation and engagement in learning. Clinicians do not have the expertise or know-how to utilize game mechanisms in the media they are developing, nor are they experts in the realm of story, fantasy and experiential learning.

Federal and provincial governments use the tax system to establish eligibility and deliver benefits and credits to low-income Canadians. Low-income Canadians experience increased barriers to filing their taxes and thus do not maximize available benefits. This is likely to have worsened as free in-person tax clinics closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic or only provide services virtually and as a result become inaccessible for individuals who lack technology and internet access.

Mobile note-taking has soon taken over our digital world. With many digital applications offered on computers, mobile devices, and tablets.
