Ocean technology companies and research organizations rely on autonomous sensors, buoys, and communication nodes to monitor marine environments and support offshore operations. While these devices provide essential data, their dependence on batteries creates high servicing costs, logistical challenges, and limited deployment lifetimes in harsh marine conditions. Overcoming these limitations is critical for enabling sustainable, long-term […]

Energy saving is one of the important issues in today world. In order to improve the performance of the industrial motor drives for high-power applications, higher voltage power converters are recommended. Compared with low-power converters, high-power systems have their distinct characteristics and challenges, and usually require converter configurations capable of processing energy conversion at higher […]

This project, based at the Tyndall Institute at University College Cork in Ireland, is creating one of the first open-access, lab-quality biomechanics datasets focused on dance. It will record movement from different dance styles using motion capture, wearable sensors, and muscle activity measurements to better understand the physical demands of dance techniques and the risks […]

The objective of this project is to connect architects and wind engineers early on within a project so that affects associated with wind such as pedestrian comfort and building strength may be maintained from the start of a project. Rather than making post-construction modifications to a building through the costly use of screens, covers or […]

NASUCO CANADA est une entreprise québécoise qui se spécialise dans la production, la transformation et la commercialisation de petits fruits, notamment des bleuets sauvages. L’entreprise souhaite optimiser son procédé de fabrication afin de soutenir sa croissance et améliorer la qualité de ses produits. Un des besoins essentiels de l’entreprise est d’optimiser le temps de cuisson […]

In this project, a novel torque measurement technique based on piezoelectric sensors will be proposed to overcome the constraints posed by traditional methods such as strain gauges, magnetic pickups etc. Specially designed disks which are connected to the sensor will be mounted on the shaft. The proposed method will be used to compare relative twist […]

Older adults have difficulty keeping track of the frequency of their dosage as well as opening the medication packaging. Nonadherence to prescribed medication can lead to hospitalization which increases the burden of care both for the patients and the medication system. Our solution, Pillsette, is a smart medication adherence device that offers a reusable pill […]

The transition to low-carbon ocean economies requires innovative energy solutions for ports and coastal communities, where electrification of ships, ferries, and vehicles is accelerating. Building on prior research in probabilistic EV charging demand forecasting, energy consumption modeling, and emissions analysis, this project proposes a Smart Port Energy and EV Infrastructure Management Platform. The system integrates […]

L’INO (Institut National d’Optique), entreprise à but non lucratif spécialisée dans le développement de solutions optiques pour l’industrie manufacturière, souhaite bâtir une base de données structurée d’images THz annotées à partir d’échantillons de plastiques représentatifs de cas industriels. Les principales activités comprennent la fabrication d’échantillons de différentes épaisseurs (par impression 3D et à partir de […]

DiamondAI and McMaster University are working together to create a secure and scalable software interface, called an API, that connects DiamondAI’s career guidance platform with the online systems used by schools and colleges. DiamondAI helps students and newcomers understand their strengths and interests through personalized assessments powered by artificial intelligence. Right now, most schools use […]

Coastal and marine pollution is draining ecosystems and budgets across Canada and beyond, yet we still check shorelines with clipboards or wait for low-resolution satellite passes. The result: blind spots, slow responses, and costly cleanups. COASTAIR flips that script. Our AI-enabled aerial platform pairs agile drones with RGB and hyperspectral cameras to spot, classify, and […]

This project aims to advance a clean technology that uses an electrodialysis process to remove acidity from seawater while producing green hydrogen. Using seawater and renewable electricity, the system removes excess acidity, encouraging ocean carbon uptake. The result is de-acidified seawater capable of absorbing more carbon dioxide, while simultaneously producing green hydrogen as a valuable […]
