Designers often turn to traditional or digital whiteboards (i.e., SMART Kapp) during meetings to discuss designs created in complex design software (i.e., AutoCAD). However, the transition of content from these advanced tools to and from the whiteboard can be highly disruptive to the overall sense of immersion in the design task. For instance, reproducing a […]

3D object detection and pose estimation (ODPE) is an important area in computer vision, which has many real world applications such as robotics and augmented reality. Estimating an accurate pose from RGB cameras alone is challenging. Given the increased popularity of RGBD sensors, such as Microsoft Kinect, we propose a hybrid method for ODPE based […]

The internship will be divided into two parts (4 months each). In the first half, I will be working with Freshbooks´ IOS product. They currently use apple’s data storage called Core Data. It’s an internal data storage system that is built-in to the phone, and allows the application to work without an internet connection. I […]

The proposed research project is around conducting feasibility studies on the purification and conditioning of industrial hemicellulosic C5 sugars from a number of potentially commercial wheat straw liquor fractions. The research will propose experiments where data for the ultimate evaluation of enzymatic hydrolysis vs. a selected comparative list of acid hydrolysis can be included. The […]

The Recon Jet is an eyewear that is targeted towards cyclists and runners. The Recon jet is attractive because it displays the athlete’s performance, such as maximum speed and acceleration in real-time using the Recon Jet h ads-up display technology. The current Recon Jet has a GPS receiver and onboard sensors that track the athlete […]

To support the development of a developers’ toolkit for educational digital applications that use mathematics content, Erudite Science is creating a library of mathematics content and functions. Because mathematics is such a vast field, typical application functions such as search, manipulation, and inference, frequently return irrelevant results. The search process can be facilitated through the […]

Shear zone-hosted, or orogenic, gold deposits are a significant mineral resource in the Superior Province of Canada. This study will investigate the nature and genesis of gold mineralisation in the Red Lake area of the Uchi subprovince. Recent exploration by Bounty Gold Corp. has identified Au mineralisation in the Laird Lake area close to the […]

Asset management systems are becoming essential tools that help municipalities in infrastructure planning and management decisions. Additionally, building effective user experience solutions is an important factor in the success of any solution. The project objectives will be to investigate methods for building personalized user experiences and interfaces for the core of the company’s platform for […]

Low temperatures in cold seasons generate diverse challenges for the construction industry in many northern countries. Construction based on cementitious material suffer from the low hydration rate at low temperatures and the possible damage caused by water to ice transition at below freezing temperatures. The common solution for this problem is to heat and protect […]

Education preparedness is important for communities to engage in the resource sector development. This ranges from having the minimum requirements of a high school diploma to acquiring trades expertise or have a professional designation. Often overlooked are the reasons for gaps in this area. The goal of this research is first to determine the gaps, […]

Mass customization relates to the ability to provide customized products or services through flexible processes in high volumes and at reasonably low costs. Massuni is well into the development of a system that vertically integrates a user-facing interface that enables unskilled users to design and customize individual pieces of furniture, with the ability to efficiently […]

As online communication among children and young adults grows in popularity, concerns about online safety are receiving vast attention. The Two Hat Security (2HS) company has a rule-based filtering system to detect malicious chat messages and identify abusive users. The proposed project will improve the predictions of the trustworthiness (trust-level) of the users which can […]
