Our project involves the use of robotic arms with six movable joints. Utilizing Inverse Kinematics, we will program the arm to figure out how to position each joint to reach specific points, offering flexibility in handling tasks. Through motion planning, we will design paths that the arm can follow to move from one point to […]

While energy conservation in the home is an important part of reducing our ecological footprint most people do not understand or even realize how their energy consumption works and how they can manage it. In-home displays offer the opportunity to help become more aware, but often do not fit into a home’s aesthetics, typically relegated […]

THIS IS A GENERIC TEXT PUT IN PLACE AS THERE WAS NO PROJECT OVERVIEW

Face-to-face communication provides substantial benefits over traditional remote communication via video and voice: the expressivity of body language, spatial grounding in a common physical space, access to physical tools and objects, and much more. For many collaborative tasks, face-to-face communication is considered indispensable, yet meeting in person can be rendered infeasible by any number of […]

This project will help will bring forward new methods for how to bring personalized medicine to more patients in Quebec and Canada. Hopefully, the ideas put forward in this project will allow pharmaceutical companies, as well as the consulting firms that help them, to achieve reimbursed by the government. Personalized medicine will only grow in […]

The ongoing advancements in electronic equipment towards intelligence, portability, and wearability have increased demand for lightweight, flexible, and mechanically robust electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials. There are textile-based EMI shields in the market; however, they are mostly reflection-based shields rather than absorption-based, which results in secondary pollution. As such, this research project is an initiative […]

Le sport automobile amateur est un domaine qui n’a pas beaucoup évolué dans ses façons de faire. Avec un souci réel d’innovation pour un domaine qui n’a pas encore modifié ses façons de faire, l’entreprise CAS Compétition, spécialisée dans la modification et la fabrication de véhicule de sport automobile souhaite développer un système de suspension […]

The clinical and cost effectiveness of immunizing children WIth PCV7 and PCV13 is well established in the scientific literature. However the success of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines in children has given rise to questions from payers regarding whether continued investment in PCV13 for children is needed. The proposed research project undertaken by the intern will help […]

A coherent microwave source is a crucial component in various applications operating within the RF frequency band, including telecommunications, sensing and medical imaging. It provides a stable reference signal, transmits information, and drives other RF components. Recent research by the Hu Group has developed a new method for generating highly coherent microwave emissions, which holds […]

Several popular OT security frameworks have been developed to help organizations protect their critical infrastructure and industrial control systems from cyber threats. Two of the most popular standards include ISA/IEC 62443 (formerly ISA 99) and NIST SP 800-82 Rev.2 (ICS Security Guide). The purpose of this project is to use an existing OT infrastructure to […]

The spine is an complex system of joints requiring refined motor control strategies to coordinate movement between the lower and upper limbs. Back injuries occur due to poor spine control during sudden/unexpected spine loading. The golf swing is unique to each individual, repetitive, and involves multiple major joints during performance, making the golf swing an […]

The display industry has witnessed rapid growth, in both volume and diversification. In recent years, this trend is expected to persist with continued consumer demand, for example, a wide range of devices such as MP3 players, digital cameras, GPS map readers, portable DVD players, and electronic books, as well as the ubiquitous mobile phone and […]
