Additive manufacturing is a booming industry and Rapidia is at the cutting edge with the material extrusion + sintering approach. To better position ourselves in the market we need to: – qualify our output in terms of accuracy and deformation – prepare future leading software development – demonstrate the versatile capabilities of the machine – […]

Seleste needs to develop an app to integrate with our hardware. For this project we need interns to help us develop this app which includes two major components. First is the React Native app where interns will develop our partner integrations. This includes companies like Be My Eyes and Aira which provide services that we […]

Parkdick Enterprises Ltd. (PDI) under its RYDE brand, will be launching an E-Bike micro-mobility sharing program on Manitoulin Island, Ontario, which is set to launch in Spring 2022. The link to the project details and launch is located here: https://www.manitoulincycling.com/e-bikes/. This will be our inaugural project which uses E-Bikes and docking station technology, where riders […]

Zero Point Cryogenics is Canada’s manufacturers of dilution refrigerators, the cryogenic platform for enabling quantum technologies. To advance our product offerings, we need to innovate beyond what is currently offered on the market. Through this Mitacs internship, Zero Point Cryogenics will work with the University of Alberta to develop a new feature for our dilution […]

Video surveillance on mobile platforms such as school buses and public transit systems is increasingly important to ensure the safety of the public and the drivers. These systems are typically equipped with various sensors, e.g., GPS and accelerometer. In this project, the intern will develop a pattern recognition algorithm for our partner organization to fuse […]

Le projet a pour but ultime de développer un procédé de fabrication à grande échelle de rubans supraconducteurs avec une robustesse améliorée. Il est attendu que ces rubans supraconducteurs pourront être utilisés dans une multitude d’applications en énergie, médical et recherche fondamentale. Par exemple, ces rubans supraconducteurs seront utilisés pour construire des aimants supraconducteurs très […]

The objective of the present project is to develop the necessary tools for the optimization of the manufacturing of large size forged ingots made of high strength steels used in the transportation and energy industries. The project will analyze all the manufacturing steps including, ingot casting, open die forging and quench & temper steps. For […]

Plant microbiology has important applications in the process of industrial Cannabis sativa manufacture and distribution through its direct impact on both plant health and product quality. The research in this field has enormous potential to contribute to the quality and safety of the products, through the modulation and stabilization of plant metabolites, increase of disease […]

Membranes are becoming the dominant technology in treating drinking water and wastewater. Membranes can be made in various geometries, but hollow fibers are the preferred form factor; they can be packed more efficiently, reducing the plant size and they are often easier to clean than alternative geometries. Nevertheless, during use, membranes will become fouled, which […]

Laying hens need a reliable source of protein and energy for egg production and maintenance that does not induce fatty liver disease (FLD). As egg production moves in the direction of group housing scenarios, more management techniques, including nutritional management, that reduce losses due to feather pecking and cannibalism will also be required. Hemp has […]

The interns in this project will use their skills in researching parts and products that can be used to achieve the subprojects that we set out to create on the micro-mobility car. In some areas the students may use the machine shop and equipment found in the engineering building on York University campus to create […]

The recording of brain activity through neural Implantable Medical Devices (IMDs) has a wide range of applications, such as studying brain patterns for seizure detection or brain stimulation to alleviate motor disorders. Some IMDs communicate with an external interface platform, which offloads the recorded data from, programs, and supplies power to the IMD. However, existing […]
