Brenda Vrkljan, a professor in the Department of Rehabilitation Science at McMaster University, is leading a study that connects older adult drivers with McMaster Engineering students, staff and faculty at the McMaster Automotive Resource Centre (MARC). The study is intended to facilitate meaningful knowledge transfer that will lead to safer and more accessible automotive design.

Without a steady stream of skilled workers to sustain these factories, Canada risks losing its EV-related manufacturing opportunities, writes Ali Emadi, Canada Research Chair in Transportation Electrification and Smart Mobility at McMaster University.

On Thursday, June 1, Virtual Reality (VR) Lab IMRSV@MAC, powered by VIROO®, opened their doors for the official grand opening of their new space. Guests at the grand opening event had the opportunity to explore the facility and experience live demonstrations of VR use cases developed by engineering professor and Canada Research Chair in Transportation

Cubic Transportation Systems and McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, have partnered to form the Centre of Excellence for Artificial Intelligence and Smart Mobility to further develop AI and machine learning in traffic management systems. A partnership between Cubic Transportation Systems (CTS) and McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, is exploring new technologies around traffic prediction and

Everyone knows research is important, but there’s no affirmation like having the Prime Minister of Canada visit to see what you’re doing to move the country forward.   Such was the case Wednesday morning when Justin Trudeau visited the McMaster Automotive Resource Centre (MARC) and the neighboring McMaster Manufacturing Research Institute. Members of the Liberal

An older adult who needs a few extra seconds to cross the street. A recent newcomer who needs help navigating an unfamiliar city.  A person with a disability using public transit.    Each of these individuals face unique barriers to safe, efficient and accessible travel. And many of the current transportation systems fail every one

The partnership will foster initiatives to facilitate access and promote the adoption of VR in education and research.    The Faculty of Engineering has partnered with Virtualware to adopt and scale the award-winning VR enterprise platform VIROO®. This initiative will be inaugurated in early 2023 with the unveiling of a 100m2 custom-built immersive room at one of

Our current transportation systems, which still reflect almost total reliance on fossil fuels, are no longer sustainable, writes Dr. Ali Emadi.  Our society is coming into greater power as artificial intelligence makes machines and systems smarter and more intuitive. Continue to full article
