A three-year strategic relationship
In a November 23, 2022 announcement from Montréal (via CNW Telbec), Bell unveiled a three-year strategic relationship with the Montréal innovation centre Centech. As Centech’s exclusive telecommunications provider, Bell will leverage its advanced network capabilities, 5G, and AI management expertise to help emerging Canadian businesses drive innovation, growth, and adoption of advanced technological solutions.
Haply Robotics in the spotlight
Centech’s accelerator environment enables Bell to partner with entrepreneurs and start-ups, including Haply Robotics, a start-up that develops 3D haptic controllers. Haply’s technology reproduces tactile sensory inputs, allowing users to feel precisely what it is like to interact in a specific environment — for example, during remote surgeries or on screen with a VR headset. The high speed and low latency of Bell’s 5G network enables real-time control and feedback for physical robots through remote-touch controls in disciplines where this was not previously possible.
