The recent trends in low-cost satellite have supported an increasing large number of small satellites launches such as CubeSat, with 3000 more expected in the next 6 years. Despite sensors capturing objects at sub-meter resolutions, current technology cannot monitor or analyze data continuously or on-board. To support next-generation satellites, we propose developing an effective satellite video generation framework. The framework will be part of a shift in paradigm to on-board artificial intelligence (AI) enabled processing for satellite. We propose to develop new capabilities on CubeSat for optical satellite video. In particular, we propose to 1) overcome the conventional paradigm of requiring a user to request details of a location for tasking and acquisition of data to automatically generate video products based on processing historical data, and 2) demonstrate efficient resource management on-board satellite, and generate or capture video (30 frames per second) only when an object or event occurs.

Complex mirror geometry is common in hyper spectral space telescopes and imaging optics. These complex geometries are required for image correction and, many times, to reduce the size and weight of the instrument. These mirrors are manufactured on high precision single point diamond Computer Numerical Control (CNC) optical fabrication machines. This project will develop higher precision metal mirrors for these applications and will include development of new on machine metrology, analysis, and control capabilities to allow for the manufacture of both ultra high performance telescopes for science missions and high volume production of similar performance Low Earth Orbit (LEO) communication satellite telescopes. Higher precision metal mirrors for communication satellite telescopes will allow B-Con and Canadian instrument integration companies to capitalize on the creation of HQP jobs that the multi billion dollar LEO comms satellite market is expected to generate over the next 5 years.

Canada's Fisheries Fund will transform and drive innovation in the fish and seafood sector in Canada with a focus on developing the sector to better meet growing market demands for sustainably sourced, high-quality fish and seafood products.

The project will focus on the development of an application lifecycle management solution which will allow firm's clients run their own projects using AI-suggested content.

We are hiring a global business development consulting firm to assist us in exploring opportunities for our custom design PPE services in California and Massachusetts and helping us enter those markets.

The digital ocean initiative ensuring interoperability between water and land based transportation systems is a high priority for Canada’s marine industry. This can be accomplished by expanding the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) reference architecture, which is land-based, to include the maritime sector. Transport is a multimodal process and overall transport efficiency can be improved by better supply chain logistics, using automation to improve access to transport information. In the road sector, the Canadian Intelligent Transport Systems Reference Architecture (ITS-RA) provides a framework that has been used for developing interoperable software solutions across Canada. However, to support the digital transformation of supply chain logistics for intelligent shipping, the maritime domain needs to be better represented in the Canadian ITS-RA and therefore a maritime extension is required. This project aims to establish a statement of requirements for this extension and further support Maritime ITS interoperability.

We plan to build our brand and increase export sales to Mexico’s growing solar industry. Our customizable rooftop mounting solutions and industry-leading engineering services will be leveraged to meet Mexico's unique solar demands.

Our goal is to commence with a detailed Market study of the Indian market for our range of services. As we execute the study, we plan a Marketing campaign to create connections and build brand value for Cornerstone Canada.

To substantially increase the number of monthly leads generated and increase our lead to customer conversion rate by aggressively promoting our competitive advantages to the North East and Midwest United States.
