Establish accessible Nordik and four season spa accommodations

This project is mostly related to addressing knowledge gaps.

The goal of the proposed project is to create viable MEMS directional microphone solutions for consumer electronic devices. A unique directional microphone solution has been developed to improve audio capture in consumer devices, however several key challenges remain.

Building Communities Through Arts and Heritage - Local Arts and Heritage Festivals

SPF’s objective will be achieved by functioning as an innovative, partnership-driven complement to the Indigenous Skills and Employment Training Strategy (ISETS) that fosters more integrated, harmonized, training-to-employment models or acts as a catalyst for the formation and testing of innovative new partnerships in Indigenous labour market development. SPF activities will emphasize joint stewardship and coordination consistent with the Aboriginal Economic Development Framework. Through access to SPF funding, a wider range of Indigenous organizations will deliver Indigenous labour market programming, serving to embed collaboration and maximize leveraging opportunities with industry, federal-provincial-territorial partners, and Indigenous partners

The key objective of the Skills for Success Program is to improve the awareness of adult learning, literacy and essential skills among partners, stakeholders and employers and the application and integration of literacy and.essential skills into their programs and activities.

The recent reduction in launch costs has opened up potential for cost-efficient, high-performance, rapidly-deployable low Earth orbit (LEO) constellations. StarSpec Technologies specializes in high-precision high-accuracy Attitude Determination and Control Systems which are critical to the advancement of scientific, commercial, and military applications in space. StarSpec is directly addressing burgeoning demands in this sector through its InspireSAT Constellations On-Demand Initiative. This technology and related industrial capabilities will enable rapidly-deployable, high-precision and high-accuracy 12U to SmallSat class constellations uniquely suitable for next-generation sustainable applications in high-resolution Earth-imaging/Synthetic Aperture RADAR (SAR), Space Situational Awareness (SSA)/ Space Domain Awareness (SDA), military surveillance, and research.
This project will enable rapid commercial access to LEO while fostering growth through training of a critical mass of highly qualified personnel (HQP), thereby increasing Canadian space technologies prevalence and market share. StarSpec has received significant interest in this technology from Universities to collaborate on their projects, and is continuing to gain solid traction from the commercial sector.

The project involves the exploration, prototyping, and testing of machine learning (ML) beamforming techniques. A testbed will be built to train and test models for inferring Angle of Arrival (AoA) and Angle of Departure (AoD) on a phased array antenna system. The models will be trained with design requirements applicable to a satellite and ground equipment context. The system will demonstrate a method where automatic, independent, and passive system self-configuration for optimal operation between satellite and ground equipment. The resulting technology could establish robust, secure, and high throughput access in previously inaccessible areas.

Quantum technology has the potential to revolutionize the modern world and provide numerous opportunities to enhance space applications. Quantum key distribution can be used to distribute highly secure encryption keys in a manner such that any attempt at eavesdropping would be detected. Quantum sensing could be used to obtain 3D images of spacecrafts and objects of interest kilometers away with millimeter precision, enabling precise surface damage assessment for spacecraft and detection of small orbital debris. Both of these quantum technology applications have one crucial device in common: ultra-sensitive single-photon detectors. Single Quantum Systems is developing a revolutionary single-photon detector based on a unique semiconductor nanostructure design which has the potential to become one of the best single-photon detector ever created. This project will assess the potential benefit of our detector for space applications by evaluating the impact of radiation exposure to determine its performance in the harsh environment of space.
