This project aims at designing and creating a hardware and software Intellectual Property that can implement USB to I2S conversion. I2S is an interface which is widely used for audio data transmission. With this design, audio data can be directly transmitted from USB interface to audio signal processing integrated circuits. ESS Technology is a leading […]

As a major field of science, materials behavior plays vital role in engineering applications and various industries. Many researchers are investigating the properties of different materials to propose better and more reliable materials for different applications. Bulk metallic glasses are one of the most recent developments in material science. The aim of this research is […]

L’entreprise partenaire fabrique une empileuse à bois et la vend à ses clients qui l’utilisent pour la production des paquets. La machine actuelle est capable de traiter environ 18 rangs de planches par minute. Le projet vise à développer une nouvelle conception de l’empileuse afin d’augmenter sa cadence. La réalisation d’une telle conception nécessite plusieurs […]

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) provide a cost-effective and low-risk airborne platform for scientific and surveillance equipment. Due to the variety of instrumentation that they can carry, UAVs have enormous potential for use in a range of commercial and military sectors. However, their small size and low speed brings about aerodynamic challenges that are not present […]

Increasing global energy demand coupled with efforts to reduce our carbon emission has pushed for improved energy efficiency in many areas. One area in need of improvement is residential and commercial buildings. Specifically, the demand-side energy management of commercial buildings can be improved significantly with improved control. With the addition of on-site renewable energy generation […]

Blu-Ray Disk Framework offers content protection system which is intended to protect audio/video media against piracy. The Blu-Ray Content Protection System consists of three individually working components: Advance Access Control System, ROM-Mark and BD+. Each component works collaboratively with the other in order to protect high-definition content distributed on Blu-Ray discs. The ability of a […]

Le sujet de ce stage portera sur la climatologie, l’analyse géologique, géographique, hydrologique et morphologique de certains bassins dans la région centrale de l’état de Veracruz. Le climat est grandement influencé par des caractéristiques physiographiques côtières comme les montagnes faisant réagir rapidement l’apparition d’évènements spécifiques et de cyclones tropicaux en saison des pluies. Certains endroits […]

Aujourd’hui, l’élevage des poules pondeuses dans des cages conventionnelles est considéré comme un mode d’élevage ne répondant pas aux nouvelles aux exigences de bien être animal malgré que certaines études précédentes affirment son intérêt sur l’échelle environnementale. Deux autres modes d’agencement des cages ont été proposés pour remplacer les cages conventionnelles soient : les volières […]

The suggested research for the Mitacs Accelerate Program is directed to be the final step in a series of previous investigations for maximizing gold extraction from the ASGM tailings and saprolite materials, retrieved from the Eldorado Gold`s Tocantinzinho project (“TZ”), looking to improve its economic results. The TZ project is located in an extensive ASGM […]

Surgical robots are dramatically changing the way in which surgeries are performed. As operating a surgical robot is quite different than traditional surgical tools, surgeons face significant learning curves when training to gain competency. A useful tool for analyzing the learning process of surgeons is eye gaze tracking. Eye gaze tracking technology may be used […]

L’objectif du projet est d’implanter efficacement un aménagement d’usine préalablement conçu lors d’un travail effectué en partenariat avec l’entreprise, l’UQTR et le CNRC. L’implantation se fera graduellement afin de récolter en temps réel les commentaires et suggestions des employés. Ceci permettra d’ajuster l’aménagement théorique aux pratiques réelles de l’entreprise. Lors de l’implantation, approximativement 2 semaines […]

Using electroencephalography based technology, it is possible to study brain function over short periods of time. Building on previous Mitacs funded research, we are developing a point of care device based on the Halifax consciousness scanner called NeuroCatch, that is cheap, portable and easy to use. The ability to monitor changes in brain function after […]
