Cloth animation is essential in video games, but creating realistic cloth movements in real-time is challenging due to computing limitations. Traditional methods use simplified simulations combined with keyframing to manage performance and control, but these can be unstable and offer limited animator flexibility. Our project proposes a solution using neural networks to animate garments. By […]

This project presents a novel software-centric architecture for enhancing network management and traffic processing in satellite communication networks. The architecture features a standardized communication framework enabling seamless interaction between a software-based Network Management System, traffic applications, and a new high-speed hardware processing module. This module, designed with a hybrid FPGA/CPU approach, provides high-performance modulation and […]

The project aims to enhance the connected pain management application complementing Juno Technologies Inc.’s innovative medical device designed to relieve menstrual pain quickly and effectively.

The following proposal aims to research and develop Net Zero Carbon sustainable design strategies for a chalet, serving as a pioneering study to inform broader net-zero carbon residential developments in Montreal. It is motivated by Canada’s goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. One intern will work with PLAPROS INC., under the supervision […]

“That’s My Jam: Understanding the Value of Quick Game Prototyping” will study how emerging game developers use game jams as a springboard for their professional practice. Our primary research question is: what challenges do game jammers face when transforming prototype games into commercial products, ad-hoc groups into indie development teams, and compact jam timelines into […]

The North American livestock industry faces a combination of factors that decrease productivity, while demand for derived products continues to rise due to population growth. This necessitates the emergence of innovative, sustainable technologies to support processes, and collaborative efforts. Hence, a solution is proposed to enhance the livestock industry through an innovative IoT collar for […]

The proposed project aims to assess the market fit for VitalTracer’s VT-Patch, a wearable device for monitoring vital signs in pediatric oncology patients. By interviewing healthcare professionals across Canada, the US, and the Middle East, we will gather insights on patient care practices, essential vital signs to monitor, and cybersecurity needs. This information will help […]

The budding field of soft robotics, robots made of elastic materials such as rubbers or silicone, currently represents a 1.48 billion market size with a compound annual growth of 34.45%. The problem is that there is no specialized tool for the design and simulation of soft robots. Our research has already demonstrated a promising simulation […]

Heart failure significantly diminishes quality of life and has a high mortality rate within five years of diagnosis. While heart transplants are effective, they are limited due to donor shortages, and this gap is expected to grow with an aging population. Ventricular assist devices (VADs) offer alternatives, but VADs still underperform and remain underused due […]

The International Political Science Association (IPSA) is a global organization dedicated to advancing the discipline of political science worldwide. The IPSA World Congress, a major event that brings together over 3000 participants, scholars, analysts, policy makers and students, will be held in Seoul, South Korea in July 2025. To enhance the Congress experience for the […]

Understanding the stretchy qualities of complex fluids is crucial for industries such as inkjet printing, food manufacturing, fiber spinning, and pharmaceuticals. Special devices called filament and capillary breakup rheometers are often used to study these properties. Despite this, one of the biggest challenges in these industries is accurately measuring the “relaxation times” — a key […]

This project explores the feasibility of creating a printed circuit board (PCB) to serve the physical layer (PHY) functions within a WDOCSIS prototype. Rather than approaching this from a technical standpoint, we adopt a strategic perspective to drive product innovation. Our approach encompasses three key components: We will create a PCB that seamlessly integrates physical […]
