Medical devices and implants that cross the skin do not seal well with the skin, making them prone to infections and eventually failure and removal. We propose a bio-inspired coating for these devices. This coating will help these devices adhere to the skin and prevent bacteria from entering the body and causing infections. The coated […]

In machining applications, the robot can rotate about the tool axis without affecting machining results. This additional freedom is beneficial in the sense that it can be used to avoid robot singularities, joint limits, collisions, etc. In this project, we will investigate methods of managing this additional degree of freedom automatically. Further, between operations, the […]

1 in 13 men in Canada is diagnosed with colon cancer every year. And 1 in 29 will die consequently. 1 in 16 women in Canada are similarly diagnosed leading to death in 1 out of 34 women. More than 90% of colon cancer cases start as a small benign growth called polyp. These polyps […]

This project is aimed at supporting the translation of research innovation from the laboratory into the market. Our proposed innovation involves the use of a newly improved biomaterial in toothpastes to help transform oral health and hygiene. The proposed toothpaste will be effective in addressing tooth caries and discoloration, and simultaneously increase enamel hardness to […]

The landscape of the insurance industry has undergone rapid transformation in recent decades. A driving force behind this transformation is the exponential growth of data volumes, necessitating effective processing to unlock their full potential. This surge has led to the development of advanced processing technologies, much like how AI is harnessed to transform the insurance […]

A GIS-based water quality assessment approach will be developed in this study, and it is based on a comparison analysis using USA, Canadian and Chinese water quality index models. The method is developed within Geographic information system?GIS? framework. It has the functionalities to manage a large amount of georeferenced input data, to run different water […]

In Canada, heart failure (HF) has a 30-day re-admission rate of 17.6%. While patient care at home via follow-ups and self-management may reduce this rate, factors including physical fatigue and cognitive frailty delay follow-up visits and impair the patient’s ability to self-manage. An implantable solution such as CardioMEMS is available to monitor HF, however, its […]

Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies are proposed to improve existing training methods of machine operations and maintenance. It can reduce the need of the physical equipment to get hands on experience. Virtual models of machines are built to perform all the tasks as required in the real life such as troubleshoot different […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

This project presents an innovative approach to personalized nutrition using 3D food printing technology. It comprises two key components. Firstly, a decision-support system is designed to evaluate the feasibility of turning a 3D food design into a tangible, edible product. This system helps ensure that the food is not only nutritious but also practical to […]

The system mainly relies on the power transfer in a wireless manner. It means no wire is required for charging the objects like cellphone, laptops, etc. anymore. Given that the partner focus is mainly on the wireless power transfer and that the proposed system can transfer the power in a wireless domain, the partner can […]

La durée de vie des équipements haute tension, comme les alternateurs de puissance, est généralement limitée par celle de son système d’isolation. Le revêtement isolant utilisé pour les barres en cuivre représente l’élément de ces machines dont la résistance thermique et mécanique est la plus faible. En plus, les matériaux impliqués dans la conception de […]
