In this project, we design and implement various algorithms to reduce the energy consumption of the emerging hidgh dynamic range (HDR) displays based on some properties of the human visual system. These algorithms can be used in the modern HDR displays produced by the organization partner.

Nowadays, social networks, such as Twitter and Facebook, become platforms where ideas and opinions are constantly exchanged and rapidly reach populations that are geographically dispersed. Many marketing, political, and social campaigns rely on this fact to spread ideas, raise awareness in a massive way, and increase the popularity of products and services. Successful campaigns are […]

The project involves the development of a power amplifier for driving therapeutic ultrasound transducers such as those used in treating cancer and inducing blood coagulation. In particular, the design will make use of a unconventional amplifier topology, class E/F, and advanced GaN FET technology in order to maximize amplifier efficiency. High efficiency amplifiers are important […]

This project is a collaboration between MMSENSE Technologies and the Centre for Intelligent Antenna and Radio Systems (CIARS) at the University of Waterloo to research, investigate, and design an integrated radar module at millimeter-waves. These sensors, which will be utilized in automotive applications such as forward collision alert, rear traffic crossing alert, blind spot detection, […]

Most current propulsion and ventilation systems still suffer from poor efficiency, noise issues and too high emission levels. Little efficiency gain could yield significant reduction of energy waste, noise pollution, gas consumption and pollutant emission. Moreover a lot of the large rotating facilities do not meet their target performances and suffer from early degradation and […]

Electric golf carts and other low speed electric vehicles use lead acid batteries. There are now more than two million low speed electric vehicles operating in North America. Based on lithium ion replacement and demonstration programs carried out by Electra and our partners, there appears to be a strong interest from these industries and other […]

The proposed research aims to develop general design parameters needed to optimize a large-scale landfill biocover for countering landfill methane emissions at Brady Road Resource Management Facility (BRRMF). The intern will conduct column studies aimed at determining the optimum combination of yard waste and leaf compost and biosolids compost for facilitating the growth of methane […]

Pour faire face à la congestion en milieu urbain, de plus en plus de citoyens se tournent vers le covoiturage pour permettre de partager leurs véhicules pour effectuer des déplacements vers leur lieu de travail. Il existe des plateformes web permettant aux gens de trouver des itinéraires communs, mais ces sites sont limités, car il […]
