Ce projet vise à mettre au point de nouvelles méthodes d’intelligence artificielle pour améliorer la détection de chutes à l’aide d’un radar. L’utilisation d’un radar permet la détection de chutes dans un domicile tout en protégeant la vie privée des personnes grâce à l’absence de prise d’image et ne nécessite aucun capteur porté. Cela permet […]

The aim of the internship is to develop strategies for commercialization of radical, generic technologies developed by Exro in the area of clean technology. They have developed and patented. a variable input electrical generator that could be very efficiently used in producing electricity for undetermined electricity generation levels from clean tech sources like wind turbine […]

In recent years, plant-based food products, such as plant-based beverages, ice-cream, and yogurt, have been much admired by health and environment conscious consumers due to their sustainability and health benefits. This industrial collaborative project aims to optimize grinding processing to treat plant proteins of different sources to achieve sufficient particle size reduction, while avoiding the […]

Pharmaceuticals are considered intractable and easily transported into the water system. As a result, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are unsuccessful in completely removing these contaminants. The successful removal of these pharmaceuticals depends on the removal and purification technologies that are being used and the physiochemical properties exhibited by these pharmaceuticals. Recent research from Canada concludes […]

The main goal of this project is to target a missing niche for tidal energy distribution. There is a growing interest in utilizing tidal currents for power generation, which has led to extensive research on this source of renewable energy. Among all the different ways to collect kinetic energy from ocean tides, the tidal turbine […]

Avec l’avènement de l’ère numérique, accompagnée d’une automatisation et d’une puissance de calcul toujours croissante, le devenir des interactions humains-machines est appelé à des changements inéluctables. Le domaine de l’hydrologie prévisionnelle n’est pas indifférent à cette nouvelle réalité en regard des progrès constants de l’intelligence artificielle. L’automatisation et la redondance dans les systèmes de prévisions […]

Without doubt, hydrogen will be a significant component of future worldwide energy supply. The main issue that hampers the use of hydrogen is related to its storage and transportation which currently uses costly high pressure or very low temperature to transport and store hydrogen. Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a safe, efficient, […]

The special characteristics of plastics have led to them taking an essential role in society. Unfortunately, plastic consumption, production and disposal significantly impact the community. The failure of research labs to better understand the actual costs of lab plastic wastes has led to poor management of plastic materials and growing social, ecological and economic costs […]

In an effort to reach zero waste in Canada by 2030, this work is dedicated to the discovery of microbes with enzymatic capabilities to biodegrade plastic. A library of microbes (bacteria and fungi) isolated from a range of marine environments will be screened for unique and novel plastic biodegrading activities. Preferred microbes will be selected […]

Wood waste from Construction, Renovation and Demolition (CR&D) contributes about 7 % of the total waste sent to Canada’s municipal solid waste (MSW, or landfill) sites, according to a 2013 report from Natural Resources Canada (NRCan). This preliminary project aims to consider viable alternatives to utilize waste wood to manufacture engineered wood products for the […]

Climate change continues to exacerbate around the world. Capturing greenhouse gases like CO2 directly from air is becoming more and more important to reduce the magnitude of severe climate change. Efficient conversion of the captured CO2 into liquid fuels such as methanol has the potential to revolutionize green energy technologies and displace fossil fuels. Leveraging […]

The objective of this project is to develop and execute a sales and marketing strategy for Wisertech Solutions. Wisertech is a producer of highly advanced sustainable marine equipment. As a start-up company that has been mainly focused on R&D projects since its conception, there is a clear need to develop a sales and marketing strategy […]
