Queen’s University at Kingston (commonly shortened to Queen’s University or Queen’s) is a public research university located in Kingston, Ontario, Canada
Using artificial intelligence to screen for fetal alcohol spectrum disorder
Scientists at the University of Southern California (USC), Queen’s University (Ontario) and Duke University have developed a new tool that can screen children for fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) quickly and affordably, making it accessible to more children in remote locations worldwide. The tool uses a camera and computer vision to record patterns in children’s
Videoconferencing with life-sized holograms will revolutionize teleprescence
Professor Roel Vertegaal’s new light field displays effectively simulate teleportation A Queen’s University researcher will soon unveil TeleHuman 2 – the world’s first truly holographic videoconferencing system. TeleHuman2 allows people in different locations to appear before one another in life-size 3D – as if they were in the same room. “People often think of holograms
Revolutionary flexible smartphone allows users to feel the buzz by bending their apps
Researchers at Queen’s University’s Human Media Lab have developed the world’s first full-colour, high-resolution and wireless flexible smartphone to combine multitouch with bend input. The phone, which they have named ReFlex, allows users to experience physical tactile feedback when interacting with their apps through bend gestures. “This represents a completely new way of physical interaction
Queen’s University professor to unveil self-levitating displays, allowing physical interactions with mid-air virtual reality objects
An interactive swarm of flying 3D pixels (voxels) developed at Queen’s University’s Human Media Lab is set to revolutionize the way people interact with virtual reality. The system, called BitDrones, allows users to explore virtual 3D information by interacting with physical self-levitating building blocks. Queen’s professor Roel Vertegaal and his students are unveiling the BitDrones
New tuberculosis test – no more false positives
A new screening process for tuberculosis (TB) infections in Canadian prisons could mean that more than 50 per cent of those screened won’t undergo unnecessary treatment due to false positives. According to research by Wendy Wobeser and medical resident Ilan Schwartz, a test for TB using interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA) will detect a pre-existing TB
VIDEO: A revolutionary shape changing smartphone that curls upon a call
Queen’s university’s human media lab to unveil morephone at paris conference researchers at queen’s university’s human media lab have developed a new smartphone – called morephone – which can morph its shape to give users a silent yet visual cue of an incoming phone call, text message or email. “this is another step in the
Researchers develop new possibilities for solar power
Two Queen’s researchers have contributed to a significant breakthrough in solar technology. Their research has led to a new solar photovoltaic thermal (PVT) system that generates both electricity and heat. Solar PVTs are normally made with crystal silicon cells which generate electricity, but little heat. Stephen Harrison and Joshua Pearce (Mechanical and Materials Engineering) designed
