Research Areas
The NBCC Mobile First Technology initiative (MFTi) is transdisciplinary, applying mobile information and communication technologies with a wide variety of areas.
Accessibility
Leveraging mobile software and hardware technologies to develop novel, assistive and adaptive solutions for people who have physical or mental impairments.
universal design
Mediated reality
Designing technologies that can replace, enhance, or augment a person’s perception of reality for constructive purposes.
augmented reality, mixed reality, smart city, education, training, Microsoft HoloLens
Biometric data capture
Evaluating and integrating technologies that capture biometric data.
EDA, EEG, EMG, eye tracking, pulse oximetry, bitAlino, OpenSignals, Mirametrix
M-learning
Designing technologies that enable people to engage in educational experiences at any time, from anywhere, leveraging the unique capabilities of mobile devices.
gamification, e-books, smart television apps, geo-spatial apps, Apple TV, EPUB, Unity
Energy
Designing mobile technologies that help to improve household energy usage and contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
home energy monitoring, time series data collection, Groovy, NRCan, openTSDB, Wink, Z-Wave, Zigbee
M-health
Designing mobile technologies that help to educate people about health and wellness issues and enable them to participate in the management of their own health and safety.
student health, wellness, mindfulness, mental health, prevention of sexual assault, captology, mobile apps
Interconnected user experience
Designing mobile software systems that have the ability to facilitate the coordination of information-seeking and problem-solving sub-tasks between multiple devices, including adapting and personalizing user interfaces across multiple channels or devices according to the user's needs.
unified computing fabrics, usability, interoperability
Internet of Things, mechatronics, and robotics
Designing solutions to a wide variety of problems that employ embedded computing devices that are interconnected via the Internet or technologies that combine mechanical and electronics.
m-learning, situation awareness, telepresence robots, Arduino, MASAS, Raspberry Pi, Sphero, UBBO
Mobile interoperability
Using tools and methods for developing software systems that are able to operate on different mobile platforms.
cross platform mobile app development, responsive Web apps, progressive Web apps, Bootstrap, Google Polymer, React, React Native, VizWik, Xamarin
Captology
Identifying intentional practices in mobile software systems analysis and design that can encourage and support desired behaviours by users.
persuasive design, B.J. Fogg, functional triad, behavioural models
Authentication and security
Monitoring for new vulnerabilities to mobile systems; and leveraging technologies that attempt to prevent unwanted access to mobile software systems and the data they store or exchange with other systems.
malicious mobile apps, mobile platform vulnerabilities, industrial Internet of Things
Mobile ICT for seniors
Designing mobile technologies that enable aging as a positive experience and foster age-friendly communities.
fall prevention, home monitoring, homecare, supporting daily activities
Smart communities
smart cities, urban, rural, remote, transit, public works
Spatial and Geospatial services
