The proposed project will aim to improve traditional farming practices where seed and fertilizer are applied uniformly throughout a field without taking soil variability into account. Variable rate applications have shown the potential to help farmers save money while increasing the quality of their crop and minimizing environmental impacts. This research will help the Prince […]

Les composés per- et polyfluorés (PFAS) sont des composés chimiques très stables qui se trouvent dans de très nombreux biens de consommation courants. Cependant, du fait de leur stabilité, ils s’accumulent et contaminent l’environnement. Ces « polluants éternels » ont un impact néfaste sur la santé et l’environnement. La compagnie E2metrix a démontré que son […]

Low-altitude Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) flight operations are regulated by safety protocols provided by aviation authorities, particularly in the vicinity of crowded airspace e.g. airports. With a fast-growing market for and penetration of commercial UAVs, the possibility of UAV intrusions within controlled airspace is expected to increase, despite these regulations. At lower altitudes, this increases […]

At the request of our community partners, Selkirk Innovates would like to refresh and ensure continuity with internships required to support our ongoing technology integration work in the natural resources sectors critical to the Kootenay environment and economy, specifically in forestry, fisheries, hydrology/ geothermal, wildfire mitigation and Mining/Minerals and with particular focus on applying geomatics […]

Les diagnostiques des troubles de l’apprentissage sont onéreux, soumis à la subjectivité de l’évaluateur, et les délais d’obtention d’un diagnostic sont assez long pour assurer une longue file d’attente. Le projet de recherche a pour objectif de diagnostiquer de manière quantitative le TDAH ainsi que la Dyslexie/Dysorthographie. Pour ce faire, le patient sera soumis à […]

Naturia Technologies Inc. is a Canadian biotechnology company start-up founded in 2021 with the aim of developing biological innovations for tackling modern medical and environmental challenges. The interests of the company are divided into three main axes: Agri-food; Biopharmaceuticals; and Bioenergy. The company is currently focusing on the Agri-food axis and this project is part […]

The proposed project studies the noise sources of airplane high-lift devices (HLD) that are responsible for most of the aircraft noise at approach. The latter in turn creates noise nuisances that create health issues to populations close to large urban airports. Two approaches are followed. A state-of-the art simulation that predicts most of the turbulent […]

This project applies Canadian biotechnology solutions in the areas of genomic and molecular biology to provide improvements in the agricultural sector, in particular in the production of coffee crops. As a result of climate and environmental changes, coffee production has affected coffee crop production in many agricultural locations in emerging nations such as in one […]

Nous sommes à la recherche d’un candidat(e) pour rejoindre notre équipe et travailler sur un projet avant-gardiste de développement de solutions de nettoyage intelligent s’appuyant sur l’IA et l’IoT qui seront appliquées dans un premier temps au domaine aéroportuaire. Le candidat idéal aura une solide expérience en technologie de l’IoT, en particulier la géolocalisation avec […]

Genetic diseases are a significant health and economic burden worldwide. Treatments for the majority of these diseases remain limited or nonexistent. One treatment approach is directly editing the DNA mutations that cause the diseases. However, getting DNA editors into specific areas and cells in the body can be quite difficult. This project looks at using […]

Building design is complex and challenging and the unique nature of each project limits the ability to automate design tasks. Building Information Modeling (BIM) is commonly to manage building design and collaboration between teams and there is a plug-in (“Dynamo”) that supports task automation. The partner organization has developed several ad-hoc BIM automation scripts, but […]

Lithium-ion batteries are everywhere in our modern world. They are used in many applications, including portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. The current methods for manufacturing the electrodes in these batteries involve the use of solvents, which can be hazardous and which require significant energy to dry off. This project will focus on studying polymers […]
