Short bio
Master’s degree in Engineering, specializing in Advanced Systems and Robotics in 2020 from Sorbonne Université in Paris.
PhD student since January 2021 at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées – INSA and at IRISA (Inria Rennes) – Thesis subject ” Study of haptic and multisensory illusions to design a navigation assistance handle” within the DORNELL project, Inria challenge won by IRISA.
PhD supervisor: Maud Marchal (Professor, HDR. INSA Rennes)
PhD student in the Rainbow team at Inria Rennes Bretagne Atlantique (IRISA, INRIA), in partnership with ISIR. She works in the field of haptic perception for mobility assistance of people with motor or cognitive disabilities. Her work focuses on the psychophysical and mechanical study of tactile and haptic stimulations to inform users on their external environment. Her main project is to understand and determine which haptic stimulations allow an intuitive and efficient understanding of the external world during navigation tasks and in this way participate in the design of a multimodal handle for the DORNELL project.
