Presently, sound wall foundation design for steel piles is being governed by the effects of the freeze-thaw cycles. The deformations produced by the freeze-thaw cycles cause structural damage and can be seen as an important index to judge the stabilities of structures in cold regions. A very limited number of studies investigated pile design within […]

This research project aims to use a combination of historical data and physics principles to determine a ratio of batteries to gasoline to power a vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. The physics method that will be used is called momentum theory. Momentum theory is a simplistic model of helicopter flight that determines how much power […]

Tasks involving lifting, pushing, and carrying (e.g., lifting laundry, cleaning the floor) are often challenging, especially for seniors and people with limited mobility. On stairs, performing these tasks becomes dangerous, potentially leading to serious injury (falls, back strain, etc.). Quantum Robotic Systems Inc. (QRS) addresses this problem by making unique mobile service robots. In particular, […]

This summer student position will help define Atare Food’s technology needs for future mobile application. Intern will work on several tasks that would ultimately define minimum viable product for the organization.

Computer Vision techniques and algorithms, especially those involving deep neural networks, are now predominant in robotics and autonomous driving. These algorithms have found immense success in urban scenes for autonomous driving, and visualize 3D maps of cities. However, like most deep learning solutions, they do not generalize well over a large varieties of inputs. Thus, […]

Glioblastoma is the most common type of adult brain cancer. Glioblastoma tumors are very aggressive because these cells can rapidly invade deep into healthy tissue, which makes them particularly difficult to attack with current treatment options including surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Therefore, better pharmaceutical strategies to neutralize glioblastoma cells without damaging surrounding healthy cells is […]

Mantech of Guelph and Nano and Micro Systems Lab at University of Waterloo have forged a valuable partnership to develop versatile water sensors to monitor drinking water quality and detect contamination level in waste waters of local and national sewerage networks. This project has trained many highly qualified personnel for Canadian health and high tech […]

Plant-based meat alternatives are made using plant sources and which mimic meat in their appearance and texture. Vegan and vegetarian consumers prefer these products to meat, but many more Canadians stand to benefit from them as they transition towards diets relying more heavily on plant-based foods for ethical, environmentally sustainability, and health reasons. Consequently, the […]

Circle Neurovascular Imaging (CNVI) aims to improve the standard of care for stroke patients by providing physicians critical information assisted by artificial intelligence (AI) through their innovative software platform, StrokeSENS, which is designed to aid the clinician in making quicker, more accurate decisions about patient management. StrokeSENS, has partial clinical approval in the EU and […]

The interns will support the development and testing of an archaeological field notes tool called STRATUM. This tool will allow all notes and documentation, usually collected in note books or various handheld devices, to be collected on one digital device like a tablet or phone. The tool development will be guided by the results of […]

IMPORTANT: The company changed its name from REEcycle Inc. to Cyclic Materials on Friday February 11th, 2022. There have been no other changes to the project as it pertains to the intern for the next 8 months. The attached file is an application for the funding of 2 x 4 month internships opportunities at the […]

Cubresa is building the BrainPET, the world’s first commercial brain-dedicated positron emission tomography (PET) insert for a magnetic resonance imager (MRI). The BrainPET will give doctors and scientists a powerful tool to visualize the human brain with near-unparalleled resolution and sensitivity, providing a clear picture of the interconnectedness of structure/function in this complex organ. This […]
