The most popular type of 3D printing globally uses plastic filament. Historically, this has been done with only one plastic at a time. 3D printers can now use multiple materials and/or colors to be part of a single print. Unfortunately, today multi-material 3D printing results in a lost of waste plastic and the associated environmental […]

Energy collected from renewable resources that are naturally replenished on a human timescale is called renewable energy. One of the most reliable sources of renewable energy is the wind energy. Using wind to produce energy has less environmental impacts than other energy sources. In other words, wind turbines do not produce emission that can pollute […]

With data being the new digital currency, consumption of data is growing at an exponential rate. Data communication between mobile devices and servers generates a massive cost to businesses because of the high throughput. The business impact becomes exponentially large with respect to cellular bills and additional resources handling elevated server workloads. The objective of […]

These days, there is growing concern about the security of confidential data in organizations. There is no doubt that organizations with high-security measures will witness cyberattacks. Therefore, the question is how we can prepare our infrastructure and cybersecurity team to deal with these challenges. The incidents response playbook is a comprehensive plan which has been […]

Trois lacs du parc des Grands-Jardins montrent des fleurs d’eau (d’algues ou de cyanobactéries) récurrentes depuis quelques années, signe d’une eutrophisation accélérée. L’eutrophisation et le réchauffement du climat, de même que l’intensification de l’activité des castors, pourraient agir de concert et menacer l’habitat du poisson par la hausse des températures et la réduction de la […]

Fusion energy has the potential to revolutionize how we generate electricity, and pave our path towards a netzero carbon future. Most fusion fuels are hydrogen isotopes, which are heated and compressed into a plasma state. This process is very difficult – if the plasma degrades or behaves poorly, fusion won’t be able to occur. One […]

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and sports-related concussion have complex and variable neuronal pathophysiology. Despite extensive attempts for discovery and identification of protein biomarkers in the blood of concussion patients, the success of proteins markers is limited due to the heterogeneity and complexity of concussion. There are still no reliable protein biomarkers that can accurately […]

3D object reconstruction is a crucial task for autonomous driving. Many important fields in autonomous driving such as prediction, planning, and motion control generally require a faithful representation of the 3D space around the ego vehicle. Reliable and accurate 3D reconstruction with one RGB video alone in autonomous driving is the goal of this project. […]

Steroid drugs and creatine are treatments for muscle weakness in people with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Steroid drugs can also cause problems like weakening mitochondria which are the energy producing parts of muscle cells. Duchenne also makes it harder for mitochondria to use creatine for energy. This means that both treatments may not be doing the […]

Fourien Inc. is developing a diagnostic medical instrument for rapid and low-cost detection of COVID-19 virus using saliva samples from early-stage infections. The custom-built vibrometer instrument will use micro-sensors to detect the RNA of the virus. There is a need to develop optimized and sensitive modules of optics, electronics and mechanics that are critical for […]

This project is developing new tools to explore for mineral deposits buried in locations where they are difficult to identify using traditional techniques. The tools are based on electronic devices that are relatively inexpensive to produce so that multiple devices can be used and hence the quality of the data will improve. This will make […]

COVID, remote work, remote learning and the accelerated adoption of technology globally has shifted the ways of how we live, learn, and our future lifestyles going forward. The 90% of society face challenges of how best to simplify their navigation and access to knowledge – those who may not have high value networks, and the […]
