The Mitacs intern will support the community-based project Direct[Message] to develop and undertake research to develop a final technology-based model that will help older adults connect with arts online. The intern will assist in the data collection and analysis of 30 older adult participants’ experiences using and testing an easy-to-use keyboard prototype and an accessible […]

Collaborative robots, also known as Cobots, are devices that will help farmers in their farming duties to have better control over their crops, increase harvesting efficiency, and solve labor shortage issues in rural areas. These robots can operate near humans and complete a wide variety of tasks including harvesting crops, precise pesticide spraying and crop […]

Depuis le début de la crise du Covid, Thales Digital Solutions tente d’adapater une partie de ses algorithmes d’optimisation et de prédiction au domaine médical. Il y aura 2 trames de recherches principales : – les hopitaux et la gestion des salles d’opération – les pharmacies et la précision/gestion des commandes L’objectif principal de la […]

The battery is an electrochemical device that people use every day. The industry is always interested in improving different characteristics of batteries such as less cost, increasing power, safety, and eco-friendliness. Nickel metal hydride (NiMH) batteries are widely used rechargeable power sources. We work on the replacement of aggressive electrolyte used in this technology by […]

Photons are particles of light. While countless numbers are emitted from a light source to illuminate a room, sensitive electronics can detect light down to the level of a single photon. These electronic devices, known as single photon avalanche diodes (SPADs), use a process that triggers an avalanche of electrical charges, which can be measured […]

My main project is the conceptualization, creation, and continuous refinement of my Digital Marketing Masterclass workshops. These workshops are designed to further educate and empower the C-suite, senior technical and strategic management, and the employees of “digital-forward” businesses. There is a huge gap in education currently with regards to what is available for current and […]

Developing subject-based social media requires proper interaction with the users by learning and analyzing their profile and dynamically incorporating their opinion. In this project, a crowd-based profiling of users with respect to their peers will be developed and confidence factor calculated based on the collective opinion of the crowd will be assigned to the individuals’ […]

Le projet de maîtrise consiste à faire l’essai d’un certain type de lentilles électroniques spécialisées, appelées lentilles à focalisation forte, que sont les lentilles quadripolaires électrostatiques. Ces lentilles sont généralement utilisées dans des appareils analytiques comme les microscopes électroniques, les spectromètres de masses, les accélérateurs de particules qui fonctionnent tous à de très basses pressions. […]

Galaxy clusters are the largest gravitationally bound structures in the Universe, making them perfect laboratories to study galaxy formation and evolution. This evolution is closely influenced by the environment of a galaxy and sometimes, when two galaxies are so close to one another, a merging event unfolds. Such an event leaves long lived fossil records […]

This project aims to tackle the challenge of finding different ways Viva could optimize its existing work processes to generate maximum results, as well as innovating in the marketing domain. This requires the intern to observe technical insights such as user interaction and behaviour, as well as traffic across various virtual platforms. This understanding would […]

The delivery of online education and training has increased significantly over recent years, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research on online course delivery has focused largely on offerings delivered by academic institutions for course credit. Little is known about learner outcomes during training courses that focus on skill development. Findings from this study will provide […]

Nobody likes to have dental work redone. It is uncomfortable and it costs money. Composite resins have been widely used in restorative dentistry for many years and have good clinical longevity, but adequate photoactivation is a critical step in the restorative procedure. One of the main factors influencing correct photoactivation is the type of curing […]
