Using simplified language understandable to a layperson; provide a general, one-paragraph description of the proposed research project to be undertaken by the intern(s) as well as the expected benefit to the partner organization. {100 – 150 words) The project aims to develop a molecular compounds database to accelerate drug discovery. Compounds shared by chemical providers […]

OneCup provides cattle management solutions to the livestock industry. Our AI is called BETSY – Bovine Expert Tracking and Surveillance. Using artificial intelligence, we put a rancher’s skillset into a device the size of a small book. With several types of cameras, BETSY can ID and track cattle activity 24×7. For example, she can track […]

To use new, innovative marketing strategic to increase interest and participation in growth programming for early-stage technology startups. New channels and tools will be explored to increase the KPIs that indicate growth in entrepreneurial activity for Genesis: website traffic, social media engagement, inquiries showing interest from prospective clients (program participants), and completed applications to enter […]

This project targets development of applied methods and practical solutions to risk management problems where only partial observation of a system is possible. Such settings are commonplace in financial and other context but can be challenging to address due to a limited number of production-grade ready-to-use solutions. The scientific component of the project employs approaches […]

OneCup AI specializes in the marriage of artificial intelligence and agriculture. We are creating a platform for ranchers to track, identify and monitor their livestock with the click of a button. The ideal candidate will have the ability to create a detailed business analysis, outlining any problems and possible solutions, assist with the budgeting and […]

OneCup AI specializes in the marriage of artificial intelligence and agriculture. We are creating a platform for ranchers to track, identify and monitor their livestock with the click of a button. The agricultural sector is a traditionally non-technology based industry, we need to show them how BETSY our AI can enhance their lives, productivity and […]

This project is motivated by the demands for automation of industrial structure inspection. An autonomous re-configurable robot system is proposed to facilitate the inspection of structures with confined spaces, like airframes or ship hulls. The robot will be able to realize various types of legged locomotion by means of configuration changes. The general objective of […]

Surface cleaning is a technology used in a wide variety of industries, from heavy manufacturing and the energy sector through to conservation and restoration. Historically, technologies such as sandblasting and pressure washing have been used which have significant environmental and waste challenges. More recently, laser ablation has been used for surface cleaning. This last technology […]

The real-time monitoring of sea surface wind and wave information are crucial to the safety, performance and efficiency of various weather-sensitive on- and offshore operations, such as oil & gas platform drilling, port operations and offshore wind farming. This project plans to propose an accurate and robust method to estimate sea surface wind and wave […]

Automatic detection and classification of the Auditory Brainstem Responses (ABR) is used in newborn hearing screening. Improved detection algorithms will reduce test time, prevent infants with hearing loss from being missed while reducing the number of normal hearing babies referred to diagnostic testing. We have already improved the objectivity of ABR classification in neurological assessments […]

The Creative Destruction Lab is a seed venture development program for massively scalable science and technology-based ventures founded to positively impact the human condition. The CDL has instituted a unique summer program in light of the COVID-19 pandemic that accelerates ventures that address Covid-19 in terms of information-based solutions. CDL-West, based at UBC Sauder School […]
