This project aims to enhance Aview International’s platform by adding advanced real-time translation, live streaming support, and real-time dubbing capabilities. These new features will allow content creators to broadcast their content live in multiple languages simultaneously, breaking down language barriers and making their content accessible to a global audience. This will significantly expand Aview International’s […]

This project focuses on assessing the commercialization viability of Rogers Communications’ investments in 5G technology. The project aims to support ongoing innovation projects in partnership with the University of Waterloo by evaluating their commercialization potential through qualitative research. The project will benefit Rogers Communications by providing them with a better understanding of how to leverage […]

Lignocellulosic biomass plays a vital role in the global shift away from the utilization of non-renewable petrochemical resources. the market demand for lignocellulose nanofibrils has increased dramatically as they are attractive as a bio-based material due to their high strength, low density, high aspect ratio, functional ability, and biodegradability. Therefore, the sharing of scientific knowledge […]

Graphene is an ultra-thin material with unprecedented chemical and mechanical properties. It is highly desirable for use in technological applications such as biosensors for disease detection and electrodes for energy storage devices, but expensive and energy-intensive synthesis methods have hindered it from widespread commercialization. New, more affordable ways of making graphene have thus been a […]

Small-scale fisheries have historically been excluded from collaborating within the fishing industry when it comes to policy creation, drafting legislation, and enforcing regulations, negatively influencing small-scale fisher livelihoods. Adaptive co-management is an emerging co-management tool that is being employed in common property resources, utilizing a learn-by-doing approach, while placing heavy emphasis on generating knowledge from […]

PASQAL Canada Inc will be the partner organization. PASQAL is a leader in quantum computing and has established a manufacturing facility in Sherbrooke. PASQAL builds and provides access to quantum computing hardware as well as the necessary software and tools for programming its quantum computing platforms. Advances in the capabilities of the quantum hardware and […]

This project aims to develop a novel gene delivery method for treating brain injury, and neurodegenerative diseases. This method uses a specially designed virus system, called iPhAGE miniphagemids, to deliver genes of interest in a targeted manner. This method is better suited for targeting the brain as the miniphagemids are far more efficient, in comparison […]

This project will extend and generalize the software architecture that underlies Living Architecture Systems Group installations. These originally incorporated one-off and bespoke software to enable the specific context of the installation. Gradually the software has become more systematized, and some theoretical principles have emerged. This project will focus on extending and generalizing the current software […]

This project will explore reversible chemical reactions that can be used in interactive installation works to modulate light and enhance viewer experience in these immersive environments. The outcome will benefit the Riverside Architectural Press and the Living Architecture Systems Group by establishing the viability of key components, positioning proof-of-concept prototypes for potential integration into next-generation […]

There is growing pressure from intergovernmental organizations, governments and consumers to reduce the quantity of greenhouse gases being released into the atmosphere. Investments in green technology such as renewable energy sources, battery technology and carbon capture and sequestration can often yield significant reductions in carbon emissions. However, the corresponding economic costs of these projects can […]

In an innovative collaboration, Ubilab at Waterloo University and the eBioMed platform at BMBI have developed a sustainable technological system to support elderly individuals living alone in retirement homes. This project, set to be deployed across six retirement homes in Canada, involves the use of minimal sensors to monitor and analyze the daily activities and […]

The proposed project aims to address the evolving needs of the Ontario Kinesiology Association (OKA) and its members, focusing on understanding the challenges faced by Kinesiologists in their careers and developing initiatives to support their retention and professional growth. Through a design thinking approach, the project will involve data analysis, focus groups, and surveys to […]
