The project aims to develop advanced high strength materials in the form of nanostructured and high-entropy alloys, with enhanced mechanical properties, to improve the resistance to damage from high velocity ballistics and shrapnel projectiles by developing functionally-graded (FG) materials and structures which will replace the heavy ceramic-metal polymer layers in current armour. Artificial neural network learning will be used to study the influence material sequence in FG structures with different geometries that will be designed for enhanced energy absorption and resistance to damage under various forms of ballistic loading conditions.

This project will find out whether providing a treatment with artificial gravity (using a human centrifuge) combined with either cycling while in bed or exercising while the whole body is being vibrated can help stop an Achilles injury after bedrest.

CARAT is a space-based instrument that will fly in low-Earth orbit on a CubeSat and act as a known reference source for Canadian and other ground-based radio telescopes. This “artificial radio star” can be observed, tracked, and used to calibrate their receivers to greatly improve their accuracy.

Technologies directly addressing low-GHG transport can reduce GHG to zero over time; however, this will require cities to proactively develop smart transit options and widespread public adoption strategies.SmartCone’s “Intelligent Corridor” program removes barriers to smart transit adoption, protecting vulnerable road users through “smart” crosswalks and bike lanes and monitoring car traffic / emissions in real time. SmartCone’s AI-enabled intelligent infrastructure system brings interconnectivity, high-level analytics, data collection, monitoring and alerting together to increase safety and ease of use for alternative transportation. 

Raven’s platform interprets shop floor data and provides intelligent actions to plant workers in real-time.

This enables Ackroo to morph from being a gift and rewards processing technology to offering data, business insights, and marketing products and services, and empowering the rewards engine to offer intelligent promotional and rewards campaigns to increase customer spending at the business.

This source will allow our business to increase straight through processing time and leverage data for business intelligence. Furthermore, by linking our systems we will be able to offer a greater range of financial products directly to our clients though our Online trading platform, Express.

AlignTime is a time management business intelligence framework to help businesses understand, monitor, and model hourly time entry.

In this role, the intern will be the driving of Micharity's database and Business Intelligence systems, through the development of processes for effective data management, analysis, and reporting.

Alongside development of the wireless power module and evaluation of multiple power and data form factors, they will explore intelligent in-CPE and cloud-based analytics to enable proactive issue detection and faster corrective actions.
