Earth observation with large spatial coverage, high temporal revisits make an attractive option for continuous monitoring of Earth. The objective is to develop a software framework that leverages AI and processing tools to automatically search and discover events or objects of interest. To focus on overcoming the data limitation problem, with an innovative approach that combines few-shot learning paradigm with synthetic data generation and a use case for rare events, objects, or anomalies. A generative model will also be developed to learn the transformation between different sensor types to generate synthetic satellite images. To address the high dimensionality of satellite image data, we propose a patch/region-based approach to generation.

The company aims to develop next two versions of improved Anti-snoring Oral Appliance prototypes to progress closer to commercial product for demonstrating to a larger sample of prospective prescriber or recommender stake holders (e.g. dentists, sleep physicians), to acquire potential sales and commercial feedback. The feedback and design and developmental improvements will be iterative, building upon current version of prototype already manufactured and demonstrated to limited stake holders.

Automated Content Creation Tool(s) will allow instructors quickly and easily create new video courses on the LearnFormula platform. The use of modern technologies and AI will decrease the average course creation time from 2-3 months to 2-3 hours. And will enable people with no previous teaching or technical experience to create their own video courses in a few hours.

This project will be focused on building real-time energy market arbitrage capabilities into our Network Operations Centre (NOC) to control both front of the meter batteries and behind the meter machines and processes.

The project supports the further development of a payments platform that is integrated with the customer/order management systems typically utilised in restaurants. The project will lay the basis from which the Firm can investigate, integrate and pattern next generation solutions which could be applied to a wider range of retail point of sale (PoS) applications.

Hiring a product manager through YEP to help with innovations regarding the new Law Society of Ontario digital identity requirements.

FutureVault Inc is commercializing a SW platform that provides users with digital tools for securely storing and managing important personal and professional information.

The firm will develop benchtop flow-through reactors (~ 10 L) as medium-fidelity prototypes (TRL 5) of biotically-driven carbon capture technologies.

When it comes to saving for a future purchase, there is a hidden intricacy involved in starting to save at the right time and sticking to the plan to successfully save. Such complexity along with the actively growing ability to do online shopping is leading to an exponential growth of impulsive shopping and bigger credit card debt, especially among younger generations.
This project gives Canadians the guide and the alternative option to credit cards they need, to learn how to improve their mindset and skillsets of saving ahead for their purchases successfully.

The objective of Phase II of the Greenhouse Pepper Vision System is to improve the design and address issues encountered in Phase I. In addition, data tracking for all aspects of the system will be conducted in Phase II to provide a benchmark in performance and reliability of the system.
