For disabled people to be enabled to drive they need the use of assistive technology. Between Canada and the US there are 47.3 million people who have disabilities related to lost leg functioning. 60% of these people use adaptive devices to drive. The technology that exists in North America requires the driver to have one […]

The purpose of this project is to expand on an automatic walker braking system prototype. The system is intended to cause the medical walker to brake during sit-to-stand, stand-to-sit, and loss of contact situations through the help of sensors and motors. Currently, the system in functioning reasonably well but could use improvements from an accuracy, […]

This project aims to develop a nutritious, high-protein, and allergen-friendly plant-based snacks using lupin, a legume grown in some part of Canada (Specially Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba). By working with NAIT’s Culinary Centre of Innovation, I will finalize the recipe, verify nutritional content, test shelf life, and ensure the product meets the needs of health-conscious consumers. […]

This project will refine the formulation of four gourmet marshmallow flavours for improved stability, develop a vegan version that closely replicates the original, assess shelf life using sensory and quantitative tests, and produce compliant packaging with nutritional information. It supports innovation in Alberta’s food manufacturing sector by advancing a high-quality, plant-based confectionery product. The work […]

Dudh is a new beverage innovation that reimagines traditional Indian milk drinks for the modern North American market. This research-based project explores the development of a carbonated, dairy-based drink infused with familiar South Asian flavours such as rose, saffron, and cardamom. Aimed at second-generation Indian-Canadian consumers and the broader multicultural market, Dudh blends nostalgia with […]

This project will support the development and scale-up of an innovative water treatment technology that uses nanotechnology systems to remove harmful pollutants—like ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and phosphate—from various waste streams. These contaminants can damage equipment, lower biogas production, and lead to environmental penalties. By working with experts at SAIT, the project will help improve the […]

Neonatal jaundice affects a significant proportion of newborns—up to 60% of full-term and 80% of preterm infants—making timely and effective phototherapy essential. Current treatment methods typically rely on stationary blue-light devices that require infants to be placed in incubators, often separating them from parents and disrupting early bonding. PrintedSUN is addressing this critical healthcare challenge […]

In recent years, many studies have investigated and demonstrated the positive effects of electromagnetic field (EMF) stimulation on fracture healing, pain management, cancer treatment, or neurological disorders. With the increasing number of diabetes patients in the current society, the use of EMF could potentially be used as a new alternative and non-invasive method to treat […]

GreenWorks is focused on developing technology solutions to help clients their sustainability requirements. Over the course of the project, we will be developing research assessments for different market segments that can help advance GreenWorks reach and capabilities. A large portion of the project will be building research reports to that can provide insight into the […]

Landslides are natural hazards, commonly triggered by heavy rainfall, glacier melt, and permafrost degradation. This project explores an emerging fibre-optic sensing technology, Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS), which can enhance our understanding of slope failure processes. DAS transforms fibre-optic cables into thousands of sensors capable of detecting small-scale ground deformation in near-real-time. This project will apply […]

The Alberta Chambers of Commerce (ACC) has completed the development phase of the Alberta Supply Chain Publishing Network—an innovative digital platform designed to modernize how Alberta businesses connect, share data, and build resilient, localized supply chains. This solution represents a major step forward in supply chain innovation, enabling businesses to publish standardized information, access real-time […]

RadiCare Ventures is looking for a summer intern to work on expanding the current Customer Resource Management (CRM) technology and a centralized data collection platform. This may include researching and building out a CRM, aggregating and automating current data collection processes and report generation systems, and also working with management to explore areas of key […]
