GamBit enables users to control gameplay directly with their thoughts, offering a new level of accessibility and immersion. Through seamless integration with popular video games, GamBit empowers users to experience the thrill of gaming like never before.

Inspired by the Remora fish we have developed a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), specifically designed for underwater maintenance using metal additive manufacturing principles. Targeting offshore structures and Navy vessels as our main clientele, our ROV will not only facilitate repairs conducted by professional divers but also undertake the rebuilding of damaged parts without dry docking. […]

The proposed project aims to develop an electroless nickel-phosphorus composite coating for tire molds to address common issues such as product sticking and damage during demolding. By applying this coating, we aim to provide semi-permanent protection and anti-sticking properties to the molds, reducing the need for frequent application of releasing agents. This innovation is expected […]

Plastics recycling remains a major challenge to global environmental sustainability, particularly for vulnerable populations such as remote Indigenous communities in which plastic waste is not viably captured by existing recycling networks. This research project aims to support the on-going work by NetZero Enterprises Inc., in the technical and business R&D for scaling-up the company’s mobile […]

Water injection in the industrial gas turbines is frequently used to improve the turbine performance during hot days. Injected water evaporates in the compressor section providing effective cooling leading to increased gas density and improved performance. Water injection technology poses several technological challenges. The injection system needs to be optimized to provide a uniform droplet […]

Bio-bricks are concrete bricks of recycled materials for use in low-cost structural applications. Natural aggregates will be replaced with recycled aggregates from construction and demolition waste to mitigate the carbon emissions and waste disposal. As a part of climate action plan against the climate crisis the Government of Canada has set its goal to achieve […]

This project will be used to help develop tools for modelling how we control and optimize the size of bubbles that are needed in some industrial reactors. The current application is related to on-going work that is helping to reduce the energy needed to produce existing carbon-based fuels, but is also applicable to aquaculture, bioreactors, […]

As information technology (IT) and telecommunication systems continue to grow in size and complexity, the types and the number of telecommunication and networking devices required to support provider’s services have surged. Identifying these devices in a network is a challenging task, since they usually lack proper or accurate documentation describing their operating characteristics. Accurate device […]

The overall objective of this project is to successfully plan and implement an integration system into our manufacturing facility production lines and our prototype machinery. This integration system will include sensors that capture important process information and provide time-sensitive reminders related to the mixing and production of PLAEX products. To accomplish this overall goal, the […]

This proposal presents research projects to evaluate a new technology, Electrovestibulography (EVestGTM) that holds potential to objectively, quickly and quantitatively measure the severity of concussion, thus aiding in its diagnosis. EVestG signals are recorded painlessly and non-invasively from the external ear in response to a vestibular stimulus; they are the brain signals modulated by the […]
