The agriculture sector of the Canadian prairies including the province of Saskatchewan is one of the major contributors to the Canadian economy. Farmers are the main driver of this sector, who often face delays in their harrowing process due to unexpected breakage of the harrow tines that they use. In this project, the team will […]

One of the practical methods for treating powdery mildew is to use a UV lighting system carried by an autonomous robot. The height of the plants can be different from one greenhouse to another or even within the same greenhouse. Hence, having a varying-height UV lighting system would be essential. . To enhance the robot’s […]

The goal of this MITACS funded project is to advance existing technology for the production of biochar from sustainably harvested woody biomass. Current technology limits the amount of biochar produced from the raw wood. This project will evaluate the increase in production of biochar by some 30%. Biochar is a very resistant form of carbon […]

The Government of Canada is committed to addressing drinking-water-related health and safety needs. However, the vast territory of Canada and the disparate locations of communities makes it a huge challenge to set up water treatment infrastructure and provide necessary training and maintenance. This project aims to develop selfpowered portable devices for simultaneous water disinfection and […]

90Second Health aims to provide accessible and high-quality health information to people in different areas with a vision “To deliver to all, health information that is accurate, understandable and easy to act on”. Along with its Founder, Dr. McGrath, 90Second Health is actively collaborating in several research projects at the IWK Health Centre and is […]

The application ensures that a PhD student (Critical Performance and Creative Writing) gains opportunities suited to pursuing a career in publicity within the creative industry. Poised to enter the job market but (due to COVID) lacking the necessary real-world experience to be competitive, by linking with On Cue, this doctoral student will be given valuable […]

Women’s political representation is one of the pillars of democracy and the UN goal towards gender equality. Recently, there have been conducted many studies about gender equity at the federal and provincial levels, but very little at the municipal level. This research project will begin to fill this gap by examining how a few municipal […]

In today’s world, the video chat and conferencing has been a necessary part of overall routine life (both personal and work). Currently, the video chat and broadcast technologies require lots of bandwidth to transmit high quality data. In overall project, we aim to make video transmission data intelligent by using the state-of-the-art AI technology. This […]

Canada’s $9.6B pulp industry produces an ample supply of unusable organic pulp mill residues, yet there has been relatively limited utilization of this feedstock for the production of bio-crude through hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) – a low-temperature, high-pressure thermolytic conversion process. The proposed research project will investigate HTL catalysts that produce abundant, high-quality, and low-cost bio-crude […]

The three Film students will research how to capture and package live performance in video format, how to make it appealing to a range of audiences and how to disseminate it cost effectively in the digital environment. The Business student will develop a sustainable business plan and marketing strategy for On Cue as it navigates […]

The insurance industry is a competitive sector that is expected to account for 3.1 percent of Canada’s Gross Domestic Product in 2021. Leading insurers are investigating how machine learning (ML) may enhance company operations and customer satisfaction as clients become more selective about personalizing their insurance purchases to their particular needs. AI chatbots have the […]

A series of pressure-volume-temperature (PVT) tests and large-scale physical experiments of the hybrid solvent-enhanced SAGD process will be carried out and simulated to better understand the process physics and bitumen recovery mechanisms, which will help Imperial make reliable predictions with the upscaling potential for quickly commercial field applications. This project will be conducted both in […]
