Fresh air ventilation is necessary to create a healthy indoor living environment. It involves removing stale, moist indoor air and replacing it with fresh outside air. However, energy required for cooling and dehumidifying fresh air accounts for a significant portion (20–40%) of the total energy use in air conditioning. Thus, ‘recycling’ the energy (i.e. heat […]

Hemophilia is a genetic bleeding disorder in which the blood flow is impaired from clotting. If you have hemophilia, you may bleed for a longer time than others after an injury. The primary goal of our work is to enable patients with the condition to make effective decisions when injuries occur. For instance, our proposed […]

PPLCONNECT believes that users should be able to continue their conversations cross-device. Today the user is forced to have multiple identities for the various types of calling services, like VoIP, their Landline and their mobile number. Using the cloud to build a virtual Smartphone PPLCONNECT helps centralize for the user, one place to access and […]

Actenum produces scheduling software (Actenum DSO) that computes project schedules based on user defined criteria, constraints and desired KPIs (Key Performance Indicators). The software represents schedules using Gantt charts. A user of Actenum DSO enters activities and the constraints between them and then runs an optimization algorithm to produce a schedule. Actenum has found that […]

Chaque année, environ 10% des canadiens autonomes (65 ans et +) subissent des blessures mineures (fractures, entorses) conduisant à un déclin fonctionnel (pertes de mobilité et d’autonomie). 65% d’entre eux auront recours aux urgences après leurs blessures et 18% auront un déclin fonctionnel 3 à 6 mois après leurs consultations aux urgences et seront dans […]

The chemistry, thermodynamics, and transport phenomena of sulfur compounds in upstream petroleum operations is important as it impacts materials used in the production and processing systems, health and safety plans, treatment processes, and transport of petroleum. In offshore operations these impacts are magnified due to the remoteness of the operations and infrastructure limitations on the […]

Fatigue is a significant risk factor for operating moving vehicles in work settings that involve long duty hours or shift work rotations. A critical objective in fatigue management is to develop technology to establish fitness for duty, monitor fatigue in real time and predict performance failure. Eye movements (eyelid closure, blink rate and duration) are […]

À chaque année, des milliers d’individus souffrent ou décèdent suite à l’administration d’un médicament qui n’était pas approprié pour eux. Grâce aux récentes découvertes en génétique, il est maintenant possible de mieux prédire comment un individu va répondre à divers médicaments en analysant ses variations génétiques. Hors, un service de séquençage génétique n’est toujours pas […]

This project explores a flexible biotechnology platform that converts greenhouse gas emissions and industrial residues, such as methane and crude glycerol, into valuable biomaterials like PHB, using microbial cultures under high-density fermentation. During the internship, market research and interviews will be conducted to identify potential partners and early adopters, evaluate where the platform creates the […]

This project aims to advance real-time quality control in printed and flexible electronics manufacturing through the development and simulation of resonant metasurfaces. The work supports the commercialization of the TRAQC system—an AI-driven, terahertz-based inspection platform designed for in-line defect detection and material characterization. The research focuses on designing printable metasurface patterns made from different conductive […]

Wildfire smoke and airborne pollutants are an increasing threat to indoor air quality, yet existing filtration systems struggle to balance efficiency, energy use, and proper airflow in large-scale applications. This venture is developing a novel air filtration system that integrates directly into building air handling units to deliver superior particulate removal without high pressure drop […]

Son premier produit, déjà en phase de développement, permet de recharger sans fil des fauteuils roulants électriques dans les centres pour personnes âgées, améliorant ainsi l’autonomie des usagers et réduisant la charge de travail du personnel soignant. Dans le cadre de ses efforts pour développer de futurs produits et augmenter les performances de ses systèmes, […]
