Academic Experience

  • 2025 - now
    Research Engineer
    Institut des Systèmes Intelligents et de Robotique (ISIR), Sorbonne Université, Paris, France
    • Research engineer in the IRIS team
    • Supervised by Nathanaël Jarrassé
    • Writing papers linked to the PhD subject
  • 2021
    Master 2 Internship
    Institute of Cognitive and Integrative Neurosciences of Aquitaine (INCIA)
    • This project transferred a prosthesis control system from virtual reality to a 7-DoF robotic arm. Using an HTC Vive Pro headset and Vive Trackers, data was gathered and applied to two control modes. The teleoperation mode replicates the user’s joint positions, and neural network-based prediction, that uses contextual and kinematic data to estimate joint positions.
    • Demonstration video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJm9vPHVdj0
    • In the team of Hybrid Sensorimotor control, supervised by Aymar de Rugy
  • 2018
    Master 1 Internship
    Institute of Movement Sciences, Aix-Marseille University
    • The internship aimed to develop a controller leveraging the resonance of haptic surfaces to optimize resonance amplitude using acoustic levitation. By calculating real-time phase shifts between input and output signals, the controller adjusted the system's resonance frequency, even during human interaction, to maximize resonance amplitude and enhance the precision of haptic illusions.
    • In the team of Bio-robotics, supervised by Michael Wiertlewski
