Technology Capabilities for Canada’s Defence & Industrial Future
Advanced technology areas with potential alignment to Canada’s Key Sovereign Capabilities
TransPod brings together technology areas with potential alignment to several of Canada’s Key Sovereign Capabilities under the Defence Industrial Strategy.
Aerospace
Lightweight power electronics, vehicle structures, environmental systems and high-reliability controls for demanding aerospace and mobility applications.
Our work includes vehicle stability, electric drivetrain control, fossil-fuel-free electric vehicle systems and advanced contactless plasma technology for electrical power transmission.
Space
Advanced power and lightweight power electronics, remote-operation technologies, vacuum-rated environmental control systems, and autonomous technologies that support the safe operation of equipment and occupants in future space and other high-reliability applications.
Uncrewed and Autonomous Systems
Robotics, embedded controls, AI-enabled monitoring and autonomous inspection technologies that help complex systems operate safely with reduced human intervention.
Personnel Protection
Deployable medical technologies designed to support personnel in field and remote environments, including portable respiratory-support systems where conventional medical infrastructure may be limited.
Sensors
Structural health-monitoring technologies can help detect damage, interference and emerging structural issues, supporting longer asset life and more resilient infrastructure. Electrical-grid monitoring can also help identify anomalies and strengthen the resilience of critical power systems.
Digital Systems
Digital engineering, real-time monitoring, predictive analytics and integrated control tools for infrastructure, remote operations and complex technical systems.
