Most bubble tea purchases come with a bunch of single-use plastic waste. A plastic bag, cup, lid, straw and wrapper. Our team wanted to be able to consume bubble tea without all the unnecessary junk. Coffee shops are ubiquitous and so are coffee machines. Bubble tea shops are everywhere too, so why aren’t there any bubble tea machines? The BBLT machine is just that, an all-in-one bubble tea maker! Make bubble tea conveniently at home whenever you want, without the plastic waste.

As the majority of the Canadian population is dependent on industrial farmed produce, we seek to increase the number of individuals who grow their own produce at home and reduce the carbon emissions created by industrial farming. We developed GnoMe, a home garden assistant, that can make growing vegetables at home easy. Simply place it in soil, and it will monitor the soil moisture and nutrient levels, and automatically add water and nutrients when needed. Users can also access data through a mobile app.

Canada's growing agricultural industry still relies strongly on manual labour. Fruit picking, in particular, requires dozens of part-time workers spending long hours in the blistering sun in order to harvest a crop in time. Peach Picker aims to improve this process by automating the fruit picking process for peaches. It locates ripe fruit in 3D space and then actuates a robotic arm to delicately pick it off the tree and place it safely in a storage container, thus allowing farmers to focus their efforts elsewhere.
