Quanser to create breakthrough technology that could save lives in world's combat zones
Quanser Consulting Inc., a Markham, Ontario-based company specializing in state-of-the-art robotics and control systems, has received assistance from the National Research Council Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP), to create a prototype for a new, high-speed Unmanned Ground Vehicle (UGV). Representing a new pinnacle in cutting-edge, remote-control systems, a high-speed UGV will give military convoys a significant edge as they make their way across unexplored territory. Quanser’s aim is to give these teams the ability to deploy a remote-controlled scout far ahead, searching out suspected IED locations and sending critical information back to their controllers.

Quanser at EERI Annual Meeting and 5th Annual Seismic Design Competition
The 60th Annual Meeting of Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI) was held this year in New Orleans in memory of the recent catastrophic event that devastated the city.
Quanser had an opportunity to present its products to the professionals attending the meeting. Its booth attracted the earthquake engineering community with the Shake Table II Turn-Key System – an excellent bench-scale device designed for demonstrational and instructional purposes for both undergraduate and graduate courses.
Quanser’s Shake Table II could also be found in action at yet another venue at the Annual Meeting – it played a vital role in the 5th Annual Undergraduate Seismic Design Competition.

Quanser at Medicine Meets Virtual Reality 16 (MMVR16) Conference
MMVR took place in Long Beach, California, just south of Los Angeles. Although Quanser has been present at the conference in the past, it was its first time as an exhibitor. Quanser's booth was very popular - attracting surgeons, academics and companies interested in medical haptic research and training devices, but also in rehabilitation - drawing the attention with a rehab demonstration system available on-site.
The exposure and quality of business discussions at MMVR will likely make this event a "must repeat" for Quanser.

Quanser gets thumbs up in the Design News Magazine
The February 2008 issue of Design News Magazine brings an article on 2007 ASME Technical Conference. Although Quanser did not attend the conference directly, our name was present:
When discussing the rising interest in mechatronics, Dr. Jalili of Clemson University pointed out the challenges of fitting more mechatronics studies into an already crowded curriculum. To make it easier for professors to integrate such courses, Dr. Jalili noted the popularity of laboratory kits from Quanser. These educational aids include a variety of components to explore robotics and other mechatronic applications.
