For some years now, robot design has been moving towards greater flexibility, because rigidity can become a handicap when it comes to evolving in a complex or changing environment.

Œuvres et Recherches is organizing its first annual seminar, to be followed live online. The seminar kicks off with an art-science lecture. Cosmologist and cartoonist will work together on "The birth of the universe". Researchers Vivien Scottez and Alain Vienne will lead the lecture, while artist …

For some years now, the design of robots has been evolving towards greater flexibility, because rigidity can become a handicap when operating in a complex or changing environment. Made from silicone or plastic, these new robots are no longer based on rigid articulated skeletons driven by motors …

CoBra project aims to improve quality of both diagnosis and treatment of localized cancers, by developing a new medical robot prototype for brachytherapy and biopsy under guidance of MRI. The overall objective of the project is to enhance the patient’s quality of life and reduce their cancer …

SEMET and co-supervised by Professors Diego CATTARUZZA and Maxime OGIER. …

Artificial intelligence can make previously inaccessible astrophysical phenomena visible. This has been proven by scientists from CNRS, IRAM, Observatoire de Paris-PSL, and Ecole Centrale Marseille and Ecole Centrale Lille, brought together in the ORION-B1 program. In a series of three papers …

The prize is awarded to Christian Duriez, Inria Research Director, head of Defrost, a joint research team at the Inria Lille - Nord Europe center and the Lille Research Center for Computer Science, Signals and Automation (CNRS/Université de Lille/Inria/Centrale Lille/IMT Lille Douai).

The Automation and Electrical Systems (ASE) Master's degree, supported by the L2EP and CRIStAL research units, was presented at the annual forum of deans of electrical engineering faculties at Chinese universities. It was thus recognized as a benchmark.

IT researchers from the Inria Lille - Nord-Europe Research Centre are engaged in a strategy to get digital companies using opensource software. The Pharo programming language was the focus of attention from a wide range of scientists at a masterclass presented by Stéphane Ducasse, an …

Eulalie Coevoet, a researcher at the CRIStAL laboratory, has been awarded first prize for the best thesis 2019 by the GDR Robotique for her thesis entitled: "Inverse model of flexible robots based on optimization methods, with consideration of contacts". This thesis was supervised by Christian …
