La récolte d’énergie (“energy harvesting” ou “energy scavenging”) a connu une croissance importante au cours des dernières années. C’est le processus de récupération de l’énergie (voir Figure 1) des sources externes (solaire, thermique, éolienne, acoustique, mécanique/cinétique, etc.) et de conversion en électricité utile à petite échelle. Dans l’industrie aéronautique en particulier, la conversion d’énergie vibratoire […]

Increasing demand for more reliable electric power requires advanced monitoring systems that prevent equipment failure and outages. The existing technologies used for monitoring the voltage and the electric field in the vicinity of the high voltage devices are bulky and expensive. On the other hand, maintenance of the monitoring devices requires specific safety precautions. In […]

Currently Bombardier Aerospace uses the Doublet Lattice Method (DLM), incorporated into a structural solver, to perform aeroelastic calculations such as flutter. This method is able to provide very good results in the subsonic regime, but looses accuracy in the transonic regime due to the high non linearity of the flow. A methodology was developed where […]

Les machines d’emballage alimentaire sont produites en fonction des besoins du client et, par conséquent, chaque projet a ses propres exigences. Pour cette raison, l’étude de nouveaux procédés et matériaux est importante pour l’innovation et la concurrence sur le marché. D’autre part, les technologies de fabrication additive sont de plus en plus accessibles et réalisables […]

Les portes palières sont des portes automatiques situées généralement en bordure des voies le long des quais des stations de métro, pour séparer physiquement le quai des voitures du train. Les portes palières sont de plus en plus intégrées directement en amont de la conception des nouvelles stations de métro, ou alors elles sont rétrofitées […]

The result of this project (which will be demonstrated by a use case) can make health equipments to be used outside of hospitals. This is achieved by reducing the computation cost of running Deep Learning models by 3rd party tools and use our accelerator solution to run the size reduced and optimized model. This greatly […]

Kinetic energy harvesting has become of a growing interest in recent years. Kinetic energy is typically present in the form of vibrations that can be found in numerous environments ranging from common household goods, industrial plant equipment, to various moving st ructures. Kinetic energy harvesting is to capture minuscule quantities of kinetic energy in these […]

In the new reality of COVID-19 pandemic, contactless cooking and serving in food industry becomes a new essential prospect to reduce virus transmission by reducing human labor and human-food interaction. The goal of this project is to develop an intelligent robot system to manipulate tools and food items in a restaurant counter and kitchen environment […]

The purpose of this project is to add a feature to Rentrax so that business owners can track the physical location of their rental items. Device should be small enough to be hidden in rental items such as bikes. Battery usage of device should be as low as possible so that it doesn’t need frequent […]

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and is currently the most common cause of dementia, affecting approximately 50 million individuals worldwide. RetiSpec has developed a non-invasive, label-free retinal imager that can uniquely detect and quantify AD biomarkers – namely, signatures of A? aggregates. The combination of hyperspectral imaging and machine learning may be […]

Leather manufacturing is a by-product of the meat and dairy industries, and leather can come from any animal. More than a billion animals are slaughtered every year for their skins. But, the most popular type of skin used is coming from cow, calf and buffalo, and accounts for 64% of leather. Turning skin into leather […]
