Le projet vise à développer un système d’intelligence artificielle capable de remplacer le rôle traditionnel du scribe en clinique. Actuellement, dans certaines cliniques à Montréal, les médecins se sont regroupés pour créer des formulaires comprenant des questions essentielles à poser à un patient se présentant avec certains symptômes. Par exemple, dans le cas d’un mal […]

Over the four-month Technology Readiness Level-Up placement at NSCC, we will advance our urban-agriculture Internet of Things prototype from **TRL 4 to TRL 6** by hardening its enclosure, integrating LoRaWAN/MQTT telemetry, and linking the dashboard to Authentik SSO. We will validate temperature, moisture, and pH sensors against lab-grade instruments, refining calibration curves. In parallel, micro-pilots […]

Airborne viruses spread most readily in closed rooms where people share the same air. The usual defence is to crank up the ventilation system, so more outdoor air dilutes the germs. Unfortunately, higher airflow drives up energy bills and works against carbon-reduction targets. Installing Far-UVC lamps (222 nm) is another promising option because this light […]

The project advances the commercialization and scalability of the Resiliency Opportunity Assessment and Response (ROAR) Tool—a data-driven decision-support platform for assessing and mitigating physical climate risks in the built environment. The ROAR Tool is positioned to serve building owners, property managers, and ESG-driven institutions by providing actionable insights aligned with the Canadian Sustainability Disclosure Standards […]

This project aims to improve surgical simulations by developing advanced computer models to simulate how soft tissues behave during surgeries. It will focus on modeling tissue fracture and how surgical tools interact with tissue, considering factors such as tissue anisotropy, residual stresses, and complex tool geometries. Current finite element (FE) models developed at UBC assume […]

Le stage s’inscrit dans un projet R&D qui s’étend sur trois ans, porté par le consortium international “Hydrogen and Climate Partnership – A new hydrogen network between Canada and Germany as a key component of a climate-neutral energy system”. Ce projet a pour objectif d’analyser les relations et les effets de la restructuration des chaînes […]

This project focuses on developing a novel triboelectric sensor to improve the efficiency and reliability of industrial processes specifically in gas-phase polyethylene production. In these reactors, plastic particles often accumulate electrostatic charge during operation, leading to dangerous buildups that can cause the formation of solid “sheets,” resulting in costly unplanned shutdowns. The goal of this […]

Smart grid aims at improving the power grid performance, security and reliability through monitoring, controlling and protecting the grid dynamically. As communication infrastructure and technologies provide two-way data communication between grid endpoints, they are the key enablers for smart grid realization. WiMAX and 802.15.4g is among the dominant considered communication technologies for smart grid implementation. […]

This project will work on the development of a plasma process for synthesis of carbon nanomaterials. The effort will focus on design of the entire core components to allow very low carrier gas flow rates. The low gas consumption was identified as the highest cost factor in the manufacture of graphene, fullerenes and nanotubes (using […]

Surface coatings are an important part of many industries (e.g., aerospace, automotive) owing to their practical benefits. In particular, powder coating is now quite common given its ease of use, durability and eco-friendliness. Controlling the uniformity of the coating is highly desirable to improve the efficiency of the technique and to progress toward its automation. […]

In this project, the objective is to design and develop a mechanism for building networking solutions that would be used for automatic communication of machinery devices in the Utility facilities. For this purpose, the intern will conduct a research on the requirements of the desired applications in the target industry and extract the technical parameters […]

The proposed research project seeks to develop technology for the wireless transmission of electricity, enabling devices to receive power without the need for physical cables, similar to how Wi-Fi delivers internet connectivity. This innovation holds significant potential for Verdure: it positions the company at the forefront of sustainable energy solutions, supports the expansion of electricity […]
