Brickeye has developed its optical data acquisition (ODAQ) system in conjunction with partners primarily in environmental remediation, for whom the system was optimized for supporting temperature measurement across multiple parallel channels (up to 48) at low speeds (0.2 Hz). Brickeye’s technological advancements have been primarily focused on system ruggedization for harsh environments and developing user-friendly […]

The recent opening of the Chinese Canadian Museum’s inaugural exhibition, “A Seat at the Table: Chinese Immigration and British Columbia,” in Vancouver features the history – and present – of Chinese Canadians’ struggle and agency for acceptance and belonging. The SAT exhibit, including its interactive features, provides a valuable experiential learning opportunity for K-12 students […]

In this fast-growing world, customer satisfaction and service quality are the two important concepts that companies must understand to withstand the market and grow. In today’s competitive environment, delivering high-quality service is the key to sustainable competitive advantage. Our company is proposing a model that will help improve customer satisfaction, which will impact the customer’s […]

The work to be undertaken by the intern with Rackforce builds on a successful NSERC engage grant to develop a distributed cyberinfrastructure system linking the University of Calgary with the Rackforce data centre in Kelowna. This system will demonstrate reliable leading-edge infrastructure for distributed multi-user collaboration for advanced scientific data processing. The planned work consists […]

The main objective of the proposed research is to present a new adaptive tracing framework to dynamically adjust the monitoring and tracing of software systems according to the observability objectives at hand. This will lead to a more efficient and effective trace collection and will ensure that the proposed framework will efficiently collect just enough […]

The goal of this research is to give an effectively unsupervised financial fraud detection method, in which low rank recovery method is used to exploit intrinsic relationship of data samples. The benefits of our methods have several folds: (1) compared with classification-based methods, our methods can deal with the imbalance problem effectively; (2) by using […]

Swallow events classification is significant to improve the performance of swallow detection in digital health technologies. Our work consists of two major contributions: First, we perform data preprocessing techniques and transform the raw sEMG signals into feature vectors before using them to train an ML classifier. It is important for developing a data exploration project […]

En 2023, le Musée de la civilisation de Québec (MCQ) renouvelle son exposition permanente sur l’histoire du Québec pour en faire un attrait plus actuel, plus rassembleur et plus inclusif. Près de 18 ans après le lancement de la dernière exposition permanente, le premier défi du Musée est de récolter des données statistiques sur le […]

We are proposing to help design the experimental setup to characterize chip-scale Optical Phased Arrays (OPAs). OPAs – a photonic device used for optical beam forming and beam steering – have been widely studied for LiDAR, optical sensing, free-space communication and more. Building on previously prototyped phase array antenna design at Honeywell, the team aims […]

Datec Coatings Corporation has developed a new technology that enables them to print heating elements on various surfaces. One of these is a mica sheet, which is physically very similar to regular cereal box cardboard. By printing an image on another sheet of mica and placing both of these in a frame, it is possible […]

With the increasing effects of Green House Gas (GHG) emissions on climate change, there is also increasing interest to alternatives to internal combustion engines for mobility. Battery electric vehicles are one route, and another is fuel cells. There is increasing interest in polymer composites that are not only mechanically strong and lightweight, but also have […]

While newer, advanced Filament Fused Deposition Modeling (FFDM) 3D printing systems for additive manufacturing of plastics products have been designed in order to increase rate productions similar to conventional plastic transformation processes. Up to the date hybrid configurations that can achieve for printing selectively high deposition rates without compromising part quality hasn’t yet been fully […]
