Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are expected to carry out tasks of increased complexity, expanding in indoor environments such as warehouses and healthcare settings. However, indoor environments impose unique challenges to UAVs as the enclosed space is relatively small and safety is crucial for people working in the same space. Furthermore, the unavailability of GPS leads […]

Water management and treatment of mineral tailings and oil sands tailings are becoming critical challenges for the sustainable development of natural resources exploration. Reclamation of these tailings is challenging due to a solid phase composed mainly by very fine particles and many other chemicals. With these characteristics, the tailings form a very stable colloidal system […]

Alors que beaucoup d’efforts sont faits pour favoriser la mobilité active dans les grands centres urbains, trop peu d’attention est portée sur les municipalités régionales (5000 à 50 000 habitants) et les défis particuliers qui s’y rapportent. La promotion de la mobilité active demande de bien comprendre les besoins, enjeux et freins propres à chaque […]

Achieving sustainability in the tourism industry requires appropriate tools to make decisions and assessments in an “integrated and well-informed way”. In this context, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are tools that could vastly contribute to the assessment of sustainability due to their capabilities to integrate and combine information for the dimensions of environmental, social, and economic […]

This project aims to advance the development of fusion energy, a technology with the potential to provide nearly limitless, clean power for the future. General Fusion’s approach, known as pulsed fusion, differs from traditional methods by releasing energy in short, intense bursts rather than maintaining a continuous reaction. This method makes the process more controllable […]

Étudier les systèmes de fermeture des contenants utilisés pour le réemballage afin de les comparer avec ceux des fabricants.

Canada, with 20% of the Earth’s freshwater resources, is experiencing changes to its terrestrial water cycle as the impacts of climate change progress. This can lead to complex water storage changes manifesting as flood risks and droughts on various spatiotemporal scales. This project aims to compare a state-of-the-art physics-based hydrological modelling platform, namely HydroGeoSphere, part […]

Multisource Multi Modal RAG framework: The project will focus on developing a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system that can effectively combine and synthesize information from multiple sources within M-Files, utilizing multiple Large Language Models (LLMs) for enhanced accuracy and context. The research will address challenges related to integrating and harmonizing disparate document formats, sources of information […]

Brain disorders affect 10% of Canadians, however few treatment options exist for these devastating diseases. We have extensive understanding of their causes, but translation to treatment has been difficult. For example, many natural proteins have been identified to hold significant therapeutic promise, but getting these proteins to the brain has been a longstanding challenge. Our […]

The aim of the project is to develop molecules capable of treating cancer. Currently, chemotherapeutics used in the clinic kill cancer as well as healthy cells; this broad mechanism of action results in high toxicity to the patient. In contrast, our approach is to generate a targeted therapeutic that will work against STAT5, a specific […]

The project aims to improve how concussions in athletes are detected by using the Kinarm robotic platform, which measures sensory, motor, and cognitive functions. By analyzing data from healthy and concussed athletes, the project will develop a more accurate method for identifying neurological issues after a concussion. This will help the partner organization enhance athlete […]

This project leverages an innovative approach to optimize CarInspect’s vehicle inspection logistics, streamlining processes, reducing costs, and developing a scalable model to meet new client demands and set a new industry standard.
