This project will allow focus on growth in the US market, specifically targeting consumers and advocacy groups in the US.

A software project to a) develop an artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning model to automatically generate emotion profiles from video content and b) enhance an existing mobile application to add a user's biometric data.

Develop a robust and tested design with a working prototype for an all-electric mobile marine lift that could be offered to the market as an alternative to traditional diesel-powered lifts with hydraulic systems.

ESC is an OEM manufacturer of large commercial and industrial Air Handler Units (AHU's). These units are capable of producing extremely dry air which is required for Lithium Battery Manufacturing and similar laboratory processes. A major challenge to manufacturing these units is in ensuring that the AHU is sealed to maintain the low humidity level and not have infiltration through the wall system, doors or bulkheads. ESC needs to develop methods of sealing and testing Ultra Low Dewpoint (ULDP) AHU's to ensure the Clients critical environment requirements are maintained.

Using the new US government ASTM F2057-23 Standard Safety Specifications for Clothing Storage Units. West Furniture is required to test, and re-engineer all bedroom furniture sold and shipped to the US. Failure to do so, would result in reducing sales by over 50%.

Giftagram is looking to create a Rewards & Recognition platform as an extension of Giftagram’s GiftCenter that allows for managers and employees to recognize each other, distribute points, choose from a wide variety of physical/electronic gifts, and redeem gifts internationally. We believe this feature will help us expand our gifting solutions into the rewards and recognition space.

To build out an achievement platform, we need to scale our marketplace capabilities, expand our shipping logistics internationally and share & redeem points that will support rewards and recognition.

Autonomous flight requires advanced capabilities to Detect And Avoid (DAA) other objects across a wide range of operating and environmental conditions. In this project, Ribbit is developing a multi-target multi-sensor tracking capability that delivers new capabilities on top of its existing stack.

In this project, Burloak will perform R&D to advance the knowledge and techniques of pre and post processing aspects of metal additive manufactured components that are hindering the field’s ability to scale production for the commercialization of space and defence. Metal 3D printing is a manufacturing method that provides freedom in designing geometrically complex components and offers solutions to lower the manufacturing cost, facilitate small-production jobs and reduce material and energy waste. However, it’s imperative that alternative solutions be examined to reduce post machining of the delicate near net shape Additively Manufactured (AM) printed parts to unleash the true potential of AM.
