Atomic defects in diamonds offer the potential to serve as room-temperature quantum sensors, enabling precise monitoring of temperature, pressure, and electromagnetic fields with unprecedented precision. Diamond-based quantum magnetosensors offer extremely promising applications in orbital magnetosphere mapping, low-altitude mapping for mineral prospecting, and ground-level boarded sensors for defense and environmental applications. Being in their technological infancy, these diamond devices struggle to rival their non-quantum counterparts but do present tremendous potential for improvement. By combining the expertise of SBQuantum, the Université de Sherbrooke, the University of Calgary, and two National Research Council centers, the Project brings these quantum magnetosensors to their full deployment potential and lead the Canadian quantum technology industrial ecosystem to new horizons. The Project is transformative research that has the potential to revolutionize production processes and the Canadian quantum sensing technology landscape by significantly improving the sensitivity, cost, size, power consumption and industrial applications of magnetic quantum sensors. This will be accomplished by producing and commercializing nano integrated quantum magnetometers for high sensitivity, accuracy, and cost efficiency. To realise this, the Project Team will develop a scalable diamond-based quantum sensor fabrication process and demonstrate a robust industrial packaging methods to establish a Canadian assembly line for quantum photonic products. The initiative also targets the advancement of applications for the Canadian mining industry with quantum sensing technology for ore processing and the deployment of drones for advanced exploration surveys. Finally, the industrial partner will distribute those quantum sensing solutions to domestic and international clients

Arduro has developed a scalable process to recover carbon black (Eldarix™) from micronized tire rubber using chloramine as a devulcanization agent. The project involves optimizing chloramine synthesis and purification to maximize yield and minimize costs, with lab-scale experiments guiding adjustments for a demonstration plant.

To provide employment to Young grad with degree in Applied Arts in a role of Marketing Assistant.

The long-term goal of this Project is a scalable, passively aligned and packaged integrated quantum light source used in a turn-key manner both as fibre-pigtailed emitter arrays and as part of other micro-packages in a quantum optical system. This will bring together the quantum-dot nanowire light source technology invented at NRC and the hybrid silicon photonics integration technology used and developed at UBC, both leading Canadian research institutions, with a commercialisation effort led by Dream Photonics Inc. (Dream).

The Project brings together academic leaders in quantum technology, with national laboratory experts in standards and industry specialists in measurement systems to deliver an easily deployable quantum voltage standard. For every field, standards are essential to ensuring safety, quality, and reliability. For innovation, standards bring precision that enables improved performance. The quantum field cannot rely on last century’s classical standards (such as a kg mass placed in a safe). Instead, a new family of quantum standards are needed to bring higher precision and compatibility with quantum devices. Fortunately, quantum technology enables such a device, that is itself a quantum circuit and whose precision is traceable solely to fundamental constants. It builds standards from uniquely quantum effects and in systems that are extraordinarily engineerable. These are essential to building and perfecting the control systems that will be at the heart of all quantum computers and sensors and will sustain Canada’s leadership in the quantum field

The Project will support the development of an innovation plan to explore an AI-powered energy-saving solution to reduce energy consumption in manufacturing by adding new IoT devices and building new AI models to analyze and optimize energy consumption. The proposed project addresses critical challenges in the manufacturing sector by leveraging AI and IoT technologies to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and promote sustainability.

The project is to field test a 5-meter prototype vessel.
