Program Purpose:

DyMo Technology Corp (DyMoTech) is a Vancouver engineering firm specializing in developing Healthx000D
Monitoring and real-time diagnostics systems for heavy-duty machinery. The company's main clients are in thex000D
mining industry. DyMoTech's team of specialists has acquired in-depth knowledge of this industry'sx000D
requirement and points of pain. The company is currently engaged in an R&D project to create a Wearable,x000D
intelligent fatigue and vital health sign monitoring System. Based on the company's years of experiences therex000D
is a need in the mining industry for online personnel fatigue, vital signs, and health monitoring systems. Thex000D
lack of fatigue and vital health signs monitoring system in mining industry can cause irrecoverable losses. Anx000D
integrated intelligent fatigue and vital health signs forecasting system can be utilized in the mining industry tox000D
save the operators life and expensive mining instruments.x000D
In this respect, the goal of this study is to spec a proper Wearable, intelligent fatigue and vital health signsx000D
forecasting system. The project will utilize the NSERC funds to support a Ph.D. HQP to conduct the work.
