While OLED displays are now a relatively-mature technology, they have been almost exclusively targeting consumer electronics. As such, the ultimate goal of this ambitious collaboration will be to: Evaluate the technology and supply chain readiness of actual OLED and other emerging display technologies. Assess their potential for cockpit (critical) and cabin (passenger-level) aeronautics and train […]

In the development of AI-assisted imaging tools, Perimeter faces the challenge of enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of tumor margin assessments. This research investigates whether generative AI can be used to synthesize supplemental data, alongside automated data annotation techniques can drive measurable improvements in the performance of Perimeter’s AI tools.

Delivery of safe drinking water is an essential public service, and distribution systems are a critical control point for the protection of public health. Distribution systems encounter issues such as aging infrastructure leading to leaks and breaks, pressure management problems, and maintaining water quality during transit to consumers. These problems collectively impact the safety, efficiency, […]

The proposed research project relates to the development of a flight simulator for the low-cost hobbyist market. The industrial partner has developed a widely-used simulator and is interested in making their simulator more independent of third-party software. This will be done by developing in-house sub-models for the flight physics that calculates the aircraft behaviour while […]

Soil and groundwater pollution with harmful petroleum contaminants such as BTEX is a global concern. BTEX has carcinogenic and mutagenic properties, therefore, it is essential to remove such contaminants for a healthy ecosystem. Microorganism-mediated bioremediation is an extremely promising technique that is cost-effective, efficient, and safe for the environment. However, limited biological knowledge about the […]

Recent studies in the field of biodiesel production emphasize the use of waste materials, such as used cooking oils and agricultural by-products like banana peels, to enhance sustainability and reduce environmental impacts. Researchers are exploring innovative methods to utilize these waste materials both as raw materials and catalysts, thereby promoting a circular economy. The latest […]

Afin de détecter les fuites potentielles de pétrole, diesel et essence à proximité des oléoducs, l’entreprise Flyscan propose de survoler en avion les régions d’intérêt et d’effectuer l’acquisition d’images hyperspectrales et d’images optiques RGB, à partir desquelles il est possible de détecter la présence d’hydrocarbures liquides au sol. Pour l’instant, ces images sont analysées avec […]

Prévot : Conception d’un drone multi-tâches d’urgence santé qui inclue un générateur d’oxygène automatisé : initier les bases du programme R&D drone ambulance-brancard qui intègre des composantes monitoring et de traitement comme le générateur d’O2 et produire les premiers plans/plans génériques du drone et du générateur d’O2 automatisé. Poulet : Amélioration des inventions de Stéphane […]

Le projet de recherche vise à optimiser le procédé de carbonatation minérale développé par l’INRS et mis en oeuvre par l’entreprise Sigma Devtech. II s’agit d’un procédé permettant d’extraire du magnésium à partir des résidus miniers de serpentine et de stocker le CO2 sous forme de carbonates de haute pureté. Afin d’améliorer la rentabilité du […]

Le projet vise à augmenter l’utilisation du recyclage en place à froid pour la réhabilitation des routes. Ce procédé consiste à traiter la couche d’enrobé bitumineux existante avec des liants bitumineux et hydrauliques, renforçant ainsi la capacité portante de la chaussée tout en réutilisant les matériaux en place, ce qui est économiquement et environnementalement avantageux. […]

Line-commutated Converters (LCC) have been used for over half a century due to their robustness as well as high power capacity. However, they can face challenges from voltage and frequency disturbances in the case of terminating in a very weak ac network. Such systems use synchronous condensers (SCs) to provide voltage and frequency support at […]

In partnership with the University of British Columbia, the intern will work with VulcanX, a Canadian energy company, on a project to make hydrogen production cleaner and cheaper. They will help set up a reactor with the capability of producing hydrogen and solid carbon in a continuous process. This setup will be used to evaluate […]
