The objective of this partnership is to create an intelligent system that utilizes data-driven analysis, machine learning algorithms, and numerical simulations to evaluate and enhance artificial lift technologies, with a specific focus on gas lift. This initiative aims to help oil and gas operators reach the maximum production capacity and minimum environmental impact. The project […]

The proposed project aims to develop an innovative microsensor for precise monitoring of low-level salinity in drinking water. Using an ion-selective polymeric membrane, the microsensor enhances sensitivity and specificity, allowing for real-time monitoring within the crucial 1-100 ppm range. This technology addresses the current gap in low-cost, on-site salinity monitoring for drinking water. The partner […]

We are addressing the widespread issue of pressure injuries—a chronic wound affecting millions—with our innovative solution, the Smart Sheet. This soft, flexible, and stretchable sensor array is designed for precise pressure and shear detection. What sets us apart is the Smart Sheet’s unique ability to seamlessly conform to various shapes and contours, providing accurate and […]

Le projet consiste à créer un modèle 3D interactif du monastère des Ursulines de Québec pour une diffusion Web afin de mettre en valeur l’héritage des religieuses ainsi que son monastère (considéré comme un bien patrimonial national). Notre projet est avant-gardiste parce qu’il propose une libre navigation dans le modèle aux internautes. En effet, la […]

The intern will be working on a project at ZeroX Gaming, a gaming company, to make it easier for gamers to use blockchain technology in their games. This involves developing a tool that simplifies how players interact with blockchain features, making it as straightforward as using a regular gaming app. Additionally, the intern will work […]

The proposed project involves advancing UBC’s Depth-Camera-Augmented Fluoroscopy (DeCAF) system, a novel device for improving efficiency and reducing radiation exposure in orthopaedic trauma surgeries. DeCAF integrates a 3D depth camera with the conventional C-arm fluoroscope used for intraoperative imaging. The primary goal of our project is to assess the feasibility and market fit of the […]

Le projet Westwood est une mine d’or situé à proximité de Rouyn-Noranda, en Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Le gisement à exploité est composé de plusieurs veines minces très étalées dans l’espace et à grande profondeur. Ces conditions font en sorte que beaucoup de travaux préparatoirs sont requis afin d’accéder aux zones minéralisées. Étant donné ces conditions particulières et […]

The proposed project aims to enhance Alzheimer’s biomarkers detection by developing an innovative business model through the Lab to Market (L2M) program. This four-month initiative, in collaboration with the Innovation + Impact Network of Canada (I-INC), focuses on leveraging the entrepreneurial and innovative skills of participants to accelerate the translation of research excellence into practical […]

This project aims to investigate the potential reuse of dredged materials (DMs), which are generated as waste during maintenance activities for navigable areas, in the construction field. This will help construction industry in facing the surge in demand for raw materials to produce concrete and other construction products. To tackle both challenges sustainably, this project […]

In partnership with Antek Logistics Inc, the project will investigate how computer vision algorithms can help automate day-to-day operations in a warehouse. Novel algorithms will be developed to automatically identify and count pallets and containers within the warehouse for inventory tracking. We will also develop algorithms to detect damage severity on incoming pallets. The project […]

The intern will undertake a project which analyses several drainage structures of an experimental green roof while developing a numerical model to mimic the experimentally obtained results. In addition, the intern will also be involved in working on an Integrated Stormwater Management Plan, and low impact development methods. The partner organization will benefit by having […]

In agricultural watersheds, many meandering rivers were straightened and several rectilinear ditches were added to the drainage network in order to evacuate water as quickly as possible in the spring to improve farm productivity. The design of these modified channels was not based on natural river dynamic concepts, which include both discharge capacity and sediment […]
