Bio
I discovered my interest in mechatronics during my high school, enjoying to participate to some projects (and starting my endless relationship with Arduino ♥).
Since then, I’ve never stop studying mechatronics, specializing myself in robotics. Indeed, I participated in electronics, mechanics and computer science courses as well as some projects at the department of mechatronics of the ENS Rennes between 2018 and 2022. To specialize myself in robotics, I did a mobility in Nantes in 2021 to follow the M2 CORO IMARO at the École Centrale de Nantes.
In 2020, I obtained the mechatronics « agrégation » that enables me to get some teaching positions.
I started my Ph.D in 2022. I work on a robotic solution to support people with muscle weaknesses in the upper-limb to continue performing their activities of daily living in autonomy. I work on a new mechanical design that would better support the arm and a shared-control framework to reduce the user’s cognitive load to control it.
