OIL is also proud to have collaborated with and support:
Irene’s Pub
This iconic pub was bought by RBR in 2007 from Irene Corey, renamed after the new owner’s mother, and now owned and run by Alex and Kara Golota. It is making an international reputation as a location for live music, and a place for excellent food and drink in Ottawa.
Seapoint
This is an independent company that has made submersible optical sensors for many years. It has collaborated with SpectraSense on the design of new sensors for high range turbidity.
Ritchie Feed & Seed
This is a collaborator with OIL on the development of new sensors for monitoring bovine digestive efficiency to optimise feedstuff composition. With RFS we also collaborate on the development of an integrated monitoring system for measuring runoff from agricultural land into natural waters, a collaboration that was started in China in a joint Ontario-China project to examine water quality management in the Three Gorges Reservoir. Other work on sensors for the dairy industry is carried out with personnel from here.
Organised Savvy
