ISIR researchers help to anticipate the profound transformations in our societies brought about by the advent of artificial intelligences and robots. They work on the autonomy of machines and their ability to interact with human beings. Gathered in multidisciplinary teams, they create all kinds of intelligent and interactive systems, physical, virtual or mixed reality. Their applications address major societal challenges: health, industry of the future, transport, personal services.

For amputees, controlling a robotic prosthesis is far from a perfect solution. It can take months of training before they can perform basic day-to-day operations. In France, a team of researchers, engineers and medical doctors are developing a more natural method for controlling such a prosthesis using a phenomenon known as phantom limb sensation.

A l'Institut des Systèmes Intelligents et de Robotique (ISIR), Vincent Hayward et Séréna Bochereau font une expérience d'illusion haptique. Dans ce laboratoire, de nombreux dispositifs permettent de découpler les sources d'informations liées au toucher puis de les remettre ensemble pour simuler la perception tactile.

CNRS Images,

Our work is guided by the way scientists question the world around them and we translate their research into images to help people to understand the world better and to awaken their curiosity and wonderment.
