Fred Kan Distinguished Lecture: Ethics and the Future of Automated Mobility – Two Challenges

Faculty Club 41 Willcocks St, Toronto

Two areas of automated mobility are raising ethical questions that require our careful attention. First, today's vehicles are increasingly equipped with advanced driver assist systems (ADAS), such as lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control. ADAS partially automate safety critical driving tasks but require a particular kind of driver monitoring for their safe operation, thus […]

Skule Lunch & Learn Presents “Micro-Scale Surgery: Using Magnetic Fields to Control Tiny Robots in the Gut and Brain”

Skule Lunch & Learn “Recycling Electronic Waste: The Extraction, Processing, and Recycling of Rare Earth Elements”

ONLINE

This event has passed. There is a significant global push towards recycling waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) to enable the circular economy. Conventional recycling processes rely on pyrometallurgy or hydrometallurgy. These techniques not only are reagent intensive and often require large consumption of strong acids and organic solvents, but they also produce secondary streams […]
