La quantité et la diversité des panneaux de signalisation routière sont en augmentation constante. Parmi les défis posés par cette situation, on retrouve celui de l’inspection. En effet, ces panneaux doivent conserver des propriétés physiques déterminées (comme une réflectivité minimale) afin de satisfaire aux exigences gouvernementales. L’inspection manuelle de chaque panneau étant fastidieuse, des systèmes […]

The goal in medicine is prolong life and prevent disease before it spreads and becomes irreversible. There must be a way to easily self-monitor or to allow medical professionals to continuously remotely monitor high risk patients. The main vital signs that ideally should be constantly evaluated are pulse rate, respiration rate, body temperature, oxygen saturation […]

The requirement for online communication continues to grow exponentially, primarily a result of the increased demand for information sharing bandwidth. This demand is driven by video-over-internet applications used for both entertainment, and conferencing (felt most recently in the need for remote working during the COVID-19 pandemic). Integrated optical components fabricated in silicon are receiving particular […]

Antibiotic therapy has been the primary approach for strep throat. Although various antibiotics, including penicillin, are effective, bacteriologic, and clinical treatment failures have been reported. Patients are more concerned about soothing the pain during the infection, and green/natural drug therapy with less or no adverse side effects are becoming popular. From preliminary studies and literature, […]

To date, there is a growing attention to the use of plant-food bioactives in disease prevention. Anthocyanin, a colorful plant pigment extracted from purple and blue color fruits and vegetables has been investigated broadly for its cancer preventive and immunity boosting properties. However, anthocyanin degrade during the conventional food processing conditions such as exposure to […]

The proposed research project focuses on developing a solution to penetrate the market with technological innovation. This would require research in marketing segments, understanding the TAM and SAM, and subsequently developing a strategy to quantify the targets. In addition to that, the project also aims in enhancing the management skills of the intern and at […]

Scrawlr is offering the intern a unique opportunity to improve communication and collaboration in a system dedicated to freedom and transparency. We believe that there is a clear need for a crowd-sourced approach to information and perspective validation, which currently does not exist on an unconstrained basis. We have created a platform that allows for […]

The student is currently performing a study in Canada investigating the usability of thermostat interfaces with a focus on the differences between old and new devices. Working abroad enables the comparison of Canadian findings with German buildings/climate/interfaces. The student will work with the Fraunhofer Institute to develop state of the art approaches for the use […]

Attention is an important part of everyday functioning. We use it to interact with the world around us and take in new information. ‘AttentionTrip’ is a sophisticated tool that allows clinicians and researchers to measure the different components of attention, while it feels like you are playing a videogame. With this tool, we can see […]

A sailor needs to obtain real-time information about the status of the sailboat and also derive an accurate approximation of the behaviour of the surrounding environment, in order to safely and successfully sail a boat. We also aim to investigate how providing vital knowledge using an immersive approach will affect the cognitive load on the […]

Nowadays, the wire arc additive manufacturing is making its path toward providing benefits to aerospace, defense, and oil and gas sectors, ascribed to the process capacity to fabricate components with minimum waste of material and lead time. However, the main challenges associated with the WAAM that have hindered the wide-spread application of the technology include […]
