SOTI SNAP – Fully Automated App to PDF Generation Utility

Businesses today struggle with manual operations such as paper-based processes and copying and pasting information from one system to another. These manual operations are costing companies hours of unnecessary labour, which trickles down to customers that are expecting on demand services. SOTI has developed a software product called SOTI SNAP that allows anyone to create […]

Geometry Projection Based 3D Object Detection

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have been deployed in many real-world applications such as payload delivery, agricultural laboring, and aerial photography. Based on GPS-based localization algorithms, these drones have achieved many advancements in industry automation. However, since common GPS receivers do not work indoors, an accurate computer vision (CV) technique is required to resolve the problem […]

The influence of axial substituent on the photoluminescence of boron subphthalocyanines

Canadian public and private researchers have taken an interest in a new class of light-emitting materials, subphthalocyanines, which can produce better colour in OLED smartphone and television screens. The materials can be optimized for specific purposes by using slightly different ingredients in their synthesis, or by reacting them with other ingredients after synthesis, but most […]

Automated carbohydrate counting and machine learning could improve glycemic control in youth living with type 1 diabetes

People with type 1 diabetes (T1D) treated with a basal bolus insulin regimen need to match their insulin bolus calculation with the estimated carbohydrate content of food to maintain glucose control. We want to provide them with a more flexible approach and give them the opportunity to quickly adapt mealtime insulin using automated carbohydrate counting […]

Operational framework and application prototype for integrating DfMA and BIM

Built environments have been experiencing low productivity issues for a long time due to poor collaborative processes, inefficient information exchange, and discontinuity between design and construction. With more and more construction projects moving towards off-site construction, the concept of Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DfMA) is gaining momentum. This strategy is expected to be adopted […]

Investigate the effectiveness of various designs of inspection ports for CMLs (Corrosion monitoring locations) on thermally insulated pipes/ equipment

Thermally insulated systems (pipeline, process piping and process equipment) in the hydrocarbon industry require frequent assessment using various non-destructive examination. To access the surface underneath thermal insulations, inspection ports are widely used which have advantages of facilitating the high confidence data. The downside of inspection ports is when these allow moisture seepage which causes corrosion […]
