Microwave energy combined with a vacuum environment can be used for rapid low temperature dehydration and produce high quality food products. Industrial processing of tomatoes involves various treatment steps that affect the final profile of antioxidants in commercial food products. The goal of this project is to evaluate the retention of antioxidants in grape tomatoes […]

In this project the intern will Analyze Canadian competitors across provinces using various tools/frameworks. The intern will Review the illicit market and present recommendations on opportunities. The intern will review and analyze Auxly’s existing social listening tools (ie Meltwater) as well as develop and leverage additional online research tools (ie Web scraping). He will also […]

The Institute of Biomedical Engineering at UNB is at the frontier of myoelectric signal acquisition and interpretation in patients with prosthetic devices. A particular challenge is understanding the effect of surface contact pressure on voltage measurements at the skin-electrode interface. Smart Skin Technologies (SST) is a New Brunswick company developing multi-touch pressure sensors aimed at […]

Currently, one of the primary barriers to purchase through our website is the virtual fitting process, which requires a live virtual meeting with a stylist. Developing an artificial intelligence that would capture body measurements would allow us to streamline the fitting process for our customer, resulting in an increase in customer experience and sales. The […]

Multiomics studies of the human microbiome have an enormous potential for understanding the mechanism of biological processes involving the microbial community and the metabolites produced by gut microbiota. We will apply a multiomics strategy to clinical fecal samples using a novel collection device to stabilize fecal metabolites at room temperature, thereby making the standard practise […]

This project aims to develop a solution for the predictive maintenance of UAVs which will mitigate the burden and risks associated with the traditional reactive and preventive maintenance. By identifying the critical data related to the failures and monitoring/modeling the behaviors of the components based on data/signals during and after the flight, this research will […]

This project will develop computer vision based tools for application to the see through sensor, a new sensor developed at SAIC Montreal, which has the unique capability of acquiring both tactile (touch) and visual information, while in interaction with objects. These tools will allow for new sensing capabilities to be deployed including contact categorization, slip […]

GelEntroCeutics have developed an intrinsically acid-resistant formulation of gelatin that was used to make fish oil softgels which are acid-resistant per se and do not need to go through the coating process. This achievement is a major advantage over the usual coating of fish oil capsules with gastric acid-resistant layers that is susceptible to deformation […]

Anastomotic Leakage is a common complication that can occur shortly after surgery and lead to increased mortality rates if it is detected too late. The current method of detection relies on monitoring clinical symptoms and visual inspection of the surgical drain fluid, but this process is often delayed and reactive. NERv Technology Inc. is dedicated […]

Pressure vessels made entirely from fiber-reinforced polymer can generate substantial cost and performance improvements leading to their greater acceptance as a storage medium for pressurized alternative fuels (e.g. hydrogen). Inherent anisotropy and inhomogeneity of fiberreinforced composites usually induces functional failure (i.e. leakage) that precedes structural failure by bursting. Functional failure is attributed mainly to transverse […]

RagnaRock Northern Brewing Company Ltd. is a 5-barrel craft brewery in St. Anthony, Newfoundland, that opened in November 2019 with three owners just before the start of the pandemic. The craft beer scene in NL is growing in popularity and with an increase in demand for our product, RagnaRock is getting ready for a busy […]

Instrumar Limited’s core technology platform, used in both industrial and aerospace industries, is based on the measurement of electrical properties of materials that come in contact with its sensor. The sensors sample data in real time and provide feedback based on parameters that are determined through extensive testing. Instrumar receives terabytes of data from its […]
