The Winnipeg Boldness Project (“Boldness”) is a social innovation initiative working towards a Bold Goal: Children and families in Point Douglas will experience dramatically improved wellbeing in all aspects of self: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Over the past eight years, the Project’s Accountability Framework has been based on the idea that Boldness’ highest level […]

Renewable energy resources such as wind and solar power are often tied to the grid using dc-ac power-electronic converters. Unlike large power plants, these sources of energy have a dispersed nature, i.e., they are comprised on many small units that are operated in parallel to form a large power plant. This project deals with investigating […]

Epilepsy is a difficult disorder to assess and even more so automatically. It is observed that in REM sleep epileptiform activity differs from other states of consciousness. REM sleep could hold the key to a better understanding of epilepsy, however robust features that work on different people and types of epilepsies are required. The purpose […]

The partner organization’s primary stakeholder, Dr. Behzad Mansouri is a domain expert in the field of clinical eye examinations and their relationship to brain health. Dr. Mansouri knows the applications that are necessary to provide those in remote areas with access to health care related to his field, but does not have the means to […]

This project – Canadian Architectural Education, Accreditation, and Licensing trends in a Changing Environment – partners with the Canadian Architectural Certification Board (CACB) to comparatively analyze quantitative and qualitative data concerning challenges and opportunities facing academic and professional sectors in Canada. The intention is to better understand past changes, current states, and future trajectories so […]

High risk driving, (e.g., speeding, impaired, and distracted driving), is a major contributing factor to most traffic collision fatalities in Canada. An increase in perceived risk of being caught by police for risky driving has been shown to reduce the behaviour. Differences in the commitment to and effectiveness of enforcement is strongly impacted by the […]

The industrial scale manufacturing automation largely works because of robotic systems which are preprogrammed to reliably carry out the same sequence of steps over and over again. As a result, when scenarios change, or become more complex, robotic systems need to be re-programmed. Moreover, in high value added manufacturing applications, it is impractical to program […]

The Long-Term Development (LTD) 3.0 framework and its previous versions have been distributed by Sport Canada to national sport organizations since 2005 to improve participation and physical activity levels across the country, although the LTD’s acceptance and rollout has not been evaluated. Therefore, the purpose of this study will be to speak with national and […]

By […]

The natural land cover of Canada such as native grasslands and wetlands are not just Canadian landscapes or ecosystems, they are also Canadian heritage and identity. Our land cover is constantly under threat as a result of climate change and human footprint. The role of this research proposal is to build an accurate natural land […]

Delphi Technology has a goal of allowing for the safe piloting of up to five drones in BVLOS applications in order to increase the efficiency of transportation and logistics for clients. Additionally, the UI needs to be expanded in order to accommodate multiple drones, and to provide a simulated 3D environment for better training and […]

Cubresa is building the BrainPET, the world’s first commercial brain-dedicated positron emission tomography (PET) insert for a magnetic resonance imager (MRI). The BrainPET will give doctors and scientists a powerful tool to visualize the human brain with near-unparalleled resolution and sensitivity, providing a clear picture of the interconnectedness of structure/function in this complex organ. This […]
