This project aims to bridge Canadian talent with the rapidly growing technology scene in Asia, and vice versa. A huge opportunity – and challenge – that the world faces in the coming years is the issue of feeding the ever increasing global population without harming the environment. Currently, the agricultural industry is failing at this […]

L’entreprise RBot9 a développé le RoCap, un robot parallèle entraîné par câbles (RPEC) qu’elle destine à des applications d’inspection, d’entretien et de fabrication d’aéronefs. Afin de faciliter la collaboration entre le RoCap et son opérateur, on voudrait améliorer deux aspects de ce robot : (1) on voudrait faciliter le redéploiement du robot en permettant son […]

Autonomous cars are one example of a compelling next-generation artificial intelligence technology. In order to safely navigate through the world, cars must plan long-range routes and short-range paths, perceive the world around them, and act according to a safety-first policy that takes into account the intent of agents in their surrounding world. While not strictly […]

La production de pièces techniques en caoutchouc met en oeuvre un procédé de transformation irréversible, la vulcanisation, qui permet d’attribuer à la pièce des propriétes mécaniques qui doivent respecter des valeurs de spécifications précises. Un non-respect des critères de qualité engendre un gaspillage, car en raison du caractère difficilement recyclable du caoutchouc, la matière des […]

The products manufactured at GE Bromont go through a series of processes that produce the specific characteristics of each product according to required specifications. The number of these characteristics is very large, and several characteristics are dependent on the others. This reality makes the use of traditional statistical techniques for quality control of products laborious […]

Le projet de recherche se découpe en deux volets. Pour le premier, il s’agit de participer au projet de fouilles archéologiques sur le site d’Argilos, une cité grecque antique qui prit forme aux alentours des VIIe et VIe s. avant notre ère, soit établie durant la période dite archaïque de la Grèce antique. Celle-ci se […]

Marine oil spills without rapid and effective response may cause a series of severe hazards such as destroying the ocean ecological environments or even impacting human welfares. Conventional responders lack the in-time response capability for these time-sensitive incidents. To this end, SHIFT Environmental Technologies Ltd., are developing a promising solution called the Coastal Incident Management […]

During the proposed Mitacs Accelerate program time period, the intern (student researcher) will electrically evaluate, revise, and improve the integrated circuits himself designed for Peraso Technologies in winter 2013. This project will also include the design and implementation of a die package that hosts Peraso’s wireless communication systems including the integrated circuits designed by the […]

Plenty of conclusive evidence points to the association of meat consumption with negative environmental outcomes resulting in climate change. These findings show the importance of reducing meat consumption and developing efficient strategies such as production of meat alternatives to alleviate the associated environmental and health issues. However, the production of plant-based meat analogues that can […]

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 […]

Transient electronics and their dissolution byproducts, are usually harmless and benign, and hence they are an attractive approach for the global e-waste problem especially for low-cost, one time use devices such as RFID tag antennas. For this research, a straightforward laser-induced method of environmentally friendly reduced Graphene Oxide films is proposed for fabricating transient RFID […]

This project will develop an artificial intelligence-based data fusion framework for activity duration forecasting in project scheduling. Task duration estimation is an important component for project scheduling and optimization for many industries. This problem is significantly more acute for projects with a very large number of activities such as ship building and refit or when […]
