Urban population is facing unprecedented growth resulting in the need for additional agricultural resources. Traditional farming practices seem vulnerable to cater to urbanities’ needs, placing an additional burden on the food and agriculture system. Furthermore, the unsettling environmental impact of traditional farming practices has aroused the metropolitan population to search for alternatives, such as indoor […]

Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) is useful in multiple applications such as autonomous driving, augmented reality, and surveillance. Visual SLAM is a popular and widely used SLAM technique due to simplicity of the sensor network. Semantics and machine learning are used widely in recent research to achieve better robust real time SLAM performance. Hardware acceleration […]

The performance of an industrial electroplating line is evaluated using the First Pass Yield (FPY). Improving the FPY of an industrial electroplating line is complex and depends on lots of environmental and technical parameters. These parameters have different nature that makes it hard to assess the interaction between them and consequently to detect the causes […]

Founders Leonard and Mark Buhler have started Lenmark in 2016, with buying and selling equipment auctions, but they have quickly realized that there must be a better way for people and businesses to transact equipment and assets. This is how the idea was born and the development moved on from here, towards growing a business […]

The market of interest is the cannabis beverage market (CBD and/or THC infused drinks). This market is estimated to grow to US$1 billion by 2025 in the US (According to Brightfield Group research agency). The development of novel emulsifiers for the cannabis industry, would allow for creating both new processes and products. The technology advancement […]

Electric vehicle adoption is well past the tipping point in Canada and the world, and although the demand for electric vehicles is no longer a question, the supply chain for electric vehicles is still very much in doubt. One key element is the ability to supply electricity to support the charging of the vehicles, and […]

Seleste is developing an app to integrate with our smart glasses hardware. For this project the intern will help us develop this app which includes two major components. The focus will mainly be the React Native app where the intern will add features to our app and setup our in-house volunteer network for users to […]

Global warming is a well-known global phenomenon that has been in the headlines for the past few decades. Greenhouse gases (Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Carbon Monoxide, etc.) are the major contributors to global warming and several governments have been working towards limiting such emissions by introducing emission guidelines. Carbon Dioxide is the gas of interest in […]

This research project will develop new methods for detecting space debris, communication signals, and moon dust equipped on spacecraft and satellites to be launched in the future. One of the major concerns with equipment orbiting Earth is the possible collision with space debris. Also, a lunar outpost equipped with the Canadarm3 is planned for completion […]

Magnestar is developing the electromagnetic capabilities and an operator community application to enable space assets to work more efficiently, and sustain operations through solar flares, regolith contamination, signal interference and space debris collision to increase the longevity of asset life. This Mitac BSI project proposal is for the co-op students to assist in the innovation […]

Le projet consiste à écrire un programme d’ordinateur (code) afin de faire le calcul de l’énergie qu’un véhicule quelconque nécessite pour se déplacer une certaine distance. À partir des résultats obtenus, le programme calculera aussi la taille des composants du système énergétique à intégrer dans le véhicule. Ensuite on va développer une méthodologie pour gérer […]

Dans une perspective de développement durable et d’adéquation avec les principes de l’économie circulaire, il est souhaitable de favoriser l’utilisation de matières recyclées et/ou naturelles en remplacement de matières premières de source synthétiques dans les matériaux polymères. De plus, la tendance actuelle de l’industrie des matériaux est d’obtenir des matériaux qui permettent de remplir plusieurs […]
