Research Areas
The NBCC Mobile First Technology initiative (MFTi) is transdisciplinary. It leverages mobile information and communication technologies to solve problems in wide variety of domains.
Accessibility
Leveraging mobile software and hardware technologies to develop novel, assistive and adaptive solutions for people who have physical, language, or cognitive impairments.
universal design, audio, text-to-speech, automated speech recognition, image processing, gesture recognition
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
Biometric data capture
Evaluating and integrating technologies that capture biometric data.
EDA, EEG, EMG, emotion analysis, eye tracking, pulse oximetry, bitAlino, OpenSignals, Mirametrix
Captology (Persuasive Design)
Identifying intentional practices in mobile software systems analysis and design that can encourage and support desired behaviours by users.
persuasive design, behavioural models
Clinical simulation
Designing mobile software systems that improve education and training for nurses and first responders.
medical manikins, human-computer interfaces, IoT, AI
Home energy monitoring & management
Designing mobile technologies that help to improve household energy usage and contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
