Robosafety is an emergent start-up committed to transforming safety engineering in autonomous systems like self-driving cars and AI-driven robots. The project’s core objective is to simplify and improve the safety assurance process, markedly reducing the time and effort involved in validating safety compliance. The overarching goal is to foster the deployment of safe, reliable autonomous […]

Nosebrush Corporation is a start-up innovation medical device group with a Scientific Inventor, CEO, CFO, and legal advisor. The scientific advisor is an Associate Professor at the University of Toronto and has independently worked on this device with association to the H2i Innovation Hub. Viruses linger in the nose before infecting the body. The team […]

CogniVue is a leading innovator in embedded computer vision, providing both hardware and software solutions that enable its customers to develop high-performance, low-power embedded vision applications. From the success of recent 3D sensing technologies such as the Microsoft Kinect or the Intel Creative camera, the need for innovative low-cost depth sensors is rapidly growing. In […]

Air pollution is one of the most devastating problems facing people around the world. In China, the rapidly growing economy has contributed to a major air pollution crisis, and scientists and engineers have been charged with the task of finding new methods to help bring the levels of pollution down. The proposed project will aim […]

By 2050 the global population is projected to reach 9.8 billion, and food supply must sustainably scale to keep up with the population’s growing nutritional demand. Insects are rich in protein and require substantially less environmental resources compared to the standard protein sources of today, making them a promising food of the future. To optimize […]

Cyanobacteria, or blue-green algal bloom are becoming increasingly common. These blooms, when they reach significant magnitudes are referred to as Harmful Algal Blooms due to release of toxins such as microcystins which pose a threat to both humans and terrestrial fauna. These extensive blooms induce anoxic conditions within the lakes, resulting in impact son aquaculture […]

This project makes it possible for Canadian researchers to share secure and traceable datasets between large computing systems in Canada. These traceable datasets can be used to further reproducible science by allowing everyone in the scientific community to know where the dataset used for experiments is from and that it has not been altered. Traceable […]

The polymer (a large chain of molecules) under study is called poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). It has only two types of molecules (carbon and hydrogen) and is an amphiphillic copolymer, meaning it attracts both water and fat molecules. When temperature changes, this polymer can go from a liquid to a gel. This gel is unique, in […]

Total::Insight™ is a geospatial and time distribution Decision Support System (DSS) that includes a correlator capable of consuming many sporadic time domain signals and converting them into feature rich tracks. The problem here is how to create an AI/ML embedding that is domain relevant from the tracks.The project objective is to develop, refine and industrialize […]

Drilling is a major operation in the mining industry. Holes are drilled in underground mine structures to insert reinforced steel bars for support and to prevent the mine from collapsing. One of the mining operations is to break mine rocks using explosives into smaller parts that can be transported for further processing. Both cases need […]

H2O2, as a greener oxidant, has been regarded as an environmentally friendly alternative used for selective oxidations, water treatment, pulp bleaching, and topical disinfection. However, by far H2O2 is mainly produced by an indirect process involving sequential hydrogenation and oxidation of an anthraquinone. The current process requires large capital investments and is reliant on energy […]

This project will develop a prototype technology to guide cranes to automatically place building elements using visual reference markers (QR codes). Working with Sparkbird, the R&D arm of WZMH, two interns will develop a software application to estimate the relative positions of the element to be placed with existing elements and the crane, allowing for […]
