Older adults have difficulty keeping track of the frequency of their dosage as well as opening the medication packaging. Nonadherence to prescribed medication can lead to hospitalization which increases the burden of care both for the patients and the medication system. Our solution, Pillsette, is a smart medication adherence device that offers a reusable pill […]

L’INO (Institut National d’Optique), entreprise à but non lucratif spécialisée dans le développement de solutions optiques pour l’industrie manufacturière, souhaite bâtir une base de données structurée d’images THz annotées à partir d’échantillons de plastiques représentatifs de cas industriels. Les principales activités comprennent la fabrication d’échantillons de différentes épaisseurs (par impression 3D et à partir de […]

Recent studies have shown that interactions between beings and the environment, including social practices and human behavior, have an impact on the susceptibility to develop chronic diseases such as cancer, through epigenetic modifications or telomere shortening. The term epigenetic applies to the modifications that regulate gene expression without modifying the DNA sequence. Furthermore, telomere is […]

Envenio is a Canadian company that specializes in advanced analysis of fluid dynamics and fluid structure interaction in the technological and environment settings. Envenio is also a software development company that owns an advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics solver, EXN/Aero, that uses many core technology in the parallel computation of unsteady and fully turbulent flows. Envenio […]

Wyvern Inc., an Edmonton-based satellite imagery company, is partnering with Dr. Joanna Wong’s lab at the University of Calgary to develop lightweight, durable satellite components using advanced composite materials and additive manufacturing. Prototypes will be tested to ensure they withstand the harsh conditions of space, strengthening Canada’s space supply chain and advancing national priorities in […]

L’industrie du jeu vidéo fait face à un défi majeur : créer des personnages virtuels intelligents qui s’adaptent aux utilisateurs tout en respectant la vision créative des concepteurs. L’apprentissage par renforcement (RL) permet aux agents virtuels d’apprendre par essai-erreur, mais fonctionne de manière entièrement autonome, sans possibilité d’intervention humaine pendant l’apprentissage. L’IA peut ainsi développer […]

Equal1 aims to democratize quantum computing by making it accessible and affordable with its innovative quantum silicon technology. By integrating the entire quantum computing system onto a single chip, Equal1 aims to significantly reduce the size and cost of quantum computers, transforming their performance and scalability. Our technology is based on silicon spin qubits integrated […]

The goal of the proposed research project is to perform an in-depth analysis of shape memory alloys through thermal and mechanical testing. This analysis will be used to develop new mathematical models to better predict the performance of the shape memory alloys after they have undergone a manufacturing process that is unique to the partner […]

A hydrometallurgical process for the production of niobium and tantalum oxide from a primary mineral resource and by product of a tin smelting slag is proposed. This process comprises dissolution of the concentrate and slag with the mixture of acids, following by purification and precipitation process. XPS do not have any background in hydrometallurgical recovery […]

Every growing season, farmers face a race against time. Pests, disease, and drought can damage crops in days — but current drone and satellite tools often take 1–2 days to process data. By then, the opportunity to act may already be gone. Chimera One is building a “real-time brain” for drones. Instead of sending images […]

In Canada’s remote and weather-challenged regions, inspecting critical infrastructure like bridges or monitoring agricultural sites such as vertical farms often involves costly, dangerous, and infrequent field visits. This project explores whether there is a commercial market for a new platform that enables engineers to perform these inspections remotely, using virtual reality (VR), autonomous drones, and […]

In the airline industry, crew planning is an essential task that every airline will face. Flight crew expenses constitute the second largest operating cost (Kohl and Karisch. 2004), second only to the rising cost of fuel. Crew planning refers to the assignment of flight segments to pilots and flight attendants so that they start and […]
