Crises risks are notoriously hard to quantify. Yet, when systemic crises materialize, for instance the Global Financial Crisis (GFC), the cost for the economy and the society can be huge, with protracted recessions and financial hardships for firms and households. Thus, it is essential for public authorities to monitor and proactively address systemic risks, thereby […]

This project focuses on the development, testing, and validation of next-generation solid lubricant coatings for cutting tools designed for hard-to-cut materials commonly used in aerospace and automotive industries. Traditional machining processes often rely on oil- and water-based lubricants, leading to excessive waste, environmental contamination, and increased operational costs. By introducing advanced solid lubricant coatings, this […]

Ce projet de recherche consiste à classifier automatiquement du bois plaqué selon 16 catégories à l’aide d’apprentissage automatique. Il sera réalisé en collaboration avec une entreprise, R.Perron, qui collaborera activement pour ce projet en fournissant des données réelles de production ainsi que l’avis d’expert dans ce domaine. Actuellement, cette classification est faite visuellement par un […]

Working with AI, an image processing model will be developed to be utilized on site in sawmills to increase productivity and efficiency of the mill by using a camera connected to an AI model to detect irregularities in the production line. The project will begin with image collection and labelling then move into model creation […]

This project, led by PINA Creation Inc. in collaboration with Simon Fraser University (SFU), focuses on developing a new zinc oxide (ZnO) nano ink for use in organic solar cells. Traditional ZnO layers require high temperatures and complex fabrication, making them expensive and difficult to scale. By creating a low-cost, solution-based ZnO ink, this project […]

The Harvest Platform is a fuel-less, carbon-free water heating solution designed to replace traditional gas-based heating systems in restaurant and hotel environments. The technology harvests and recycles waste heat from commercial cooking appliances, such as ovens and fryers, to reduce operating costs and greenhouse gas emissions in a cost-effective and scalable way. Based on a […]

This project focuses on enhancing the user experience (UX) and interface design of WithinStride™’s mobile and web platforms, ensuring that both clinicians and patients can seamlessly interact with […]

This project focuses on developing and commercializing a new heat pump cleaning tool designed to work on all models, solving a key challenge in the industry. Currently, the only available tool comes from the U.S. and is not universally effective, making cleaning difficult and expensive due to import costs and tariffs. By creating a locally […]

The ultimate objective of this project is to design and develop a signal/noise analyzer to improve the reliability and efficiency of EM-based measurement-while-drilling (MWD) tool within various strata formation under high temperature, deep drilling environment. In order to analyze the received signal contaminated by surface and underground noise, it is essential to understand the electrical […]

When students use mobile devices in a classroom, teachers cannot easily know if students are actively engaged in group activities or if they are distracted. For example, a student may be observing the activities of others rather than contributing to group workspace. Even though students are in close proximity, they can be too focused on […]
