2012 - 2013A new concept is proposed to solve the problem of long objects transport in a natural environment without object length constraints.
The robot is formed by the combination of two or more cooperative robots that will be capable to co-manipulate and transport objects of any shape. This composition of the system gives various advantages such as security of the payload and the robot, and adaptability of the robot to different sizes and weights of the transported object. A first application is to transport injured people on stretchers in all-terrain, particularly after natural disasters. The same robot can also transport long objects such as tree-trunks, bunches of metallic bars on building sites, long profiles, etc

CHAMPS SUR MARNE2012 - 2012Driving simulators offer great advantages, such as reproducibility of situations and fine parameter tuning, for studying road users' behaviours and understanding how the traffic system works. The project develops a new approach to control the hand-wheel in the driving simulator in order to generate a haptics feedback for the different the road vibration like pavement texture and Pavement markings.
