geographical area in real time using synchrophasor technology enables the design of power system controllers against system wide disturbances which could lead to catastrophic failures. Currently, the synchrophasor technology is primarily used for monitoring applications and its potential for using in protection and stability control is not fully utilized. Therefore, this research is proposed with […]

MMS (Mobile Mapping System) contains three principal components: positioning sensors, measurement sensors and mobile vehicle. This kind of system records geospatial data and provide GIS applications like: supervising of highway state, monitoring of electricity poles, collecting data of public services (telecommunications lines, electricity transmission lines, traffic signpost and pedestrian areas). In this context, our solution […]

De nouvelles applications de surfaces interactives sont en plein essor telles que les écrans tactiles surdimensionnés et complètement transparents, des éléments d’habitacles interactifs dans les véhicules autonomes ou encore du mobilier interactif. Pour de telles applications, les technologies tactiles actuelles (capacitive, résistive, infrarouge) ne s’appliquent pas ou deviennent trop coûteuses. Une nouvelle technologie tactile par […]

Front-end Module is key component in satellite and wireless telecommunication systems. It contains sub-modules like power amplifier, duplexer, antenna, low noise amplifier and etc. Advanced semiconductor technology enables the integration of these sub-modules. Compared to conventional bulky communication systems, this integration features compact size, lower cost, and higher performance. In 2019, the MMIC market reaches […]

To ensure oil and gas pipelines operate safely, instrumented inspections and assessments are completed on a recurring frequency. A common and valuable inspection method is In-line inspection (ILI). This form of inspection uses a measurement device (ILI tool) that is propelled through the pipeline by product flow and the tool identifies and sizes anomalous conditions […]

To control and thwart the COVID19 pandemic, significant efforts are being deployed to adapt existing diagnostic tests, including those that use the standard reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method, to detect the SARS-COV-2 virus. Despite its high sensitivity and ability to detect small virus amounts in samples, RT-PCR is time consuming and subject to […]

This project aims to develop a Photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor based on photoactive nanoparticles such as Quantum Dots (QDs) for the detection of COVID19 and related antibodies. Highly efficient QDs based on engineered core/multi-shelled structures will be developed and their interaction with a molecular recognition element (MRE) layer will be investigated. A consistent structure-property picture of […]

The goal of the partnership between Mantech and Waterloo is to develop a technology to manufacture smart hybrid water sensors for current and future disease prediction and detection. This technology will have an invaluable impact on human health research efforts to contain the COVID-19 and possible future pandemic spread, and put Ontario and Canada far […]

Red Maple Trials (Ottawa, ON) created a facility for the research of allergy, in which patients can be exposed (challenged) to airborne allergens and symptoms can be monitored in a controlled manner. The primary clientele of Red Maple Trials are pharmaceutical companies testing allergy medications. Two testing rooms (small for 1-3 subjects, and large for […]

NeoCtech aims at producing critical rare earth elements (REE), e.g. Neodymium and Dysprosium, from end-of-life materials. REE are called rare because there are few viable primary resources to extract them due to mineralogy of REE bearing ores and physicochemical properties of REE. NeoCtech is carrying out R&D to address the circular economy of REE, and […]

The proposed project aims to develop the use of Low-Cost UAV imagery systems for precision agriculture applications with focus on weed and irrigation management applications. Generally, Precision Agriculture is a management system that aims to compile different technologies to control the use of the agriculture process inputs such as chemical herbicides, seeds, water, etc., to […]
