Curvature sensing with a spherical tactile sensor using the color-interference of a marker array
Published in ICRA, 2020, 2020
This paper is about estimating the curvature of an object from a normal press on it.
Initial contact shapes the perception of friction
Published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, 2021
This paper is about the perception of friction on initial contact based on a biomechanical model of skin deformation.
Efficient tactile encoding of object slippage
Published in Scientific Reports, 2022
This paper is about a new method to quickly estimate the safety margin before an object starts to slip.
Learning to estimate incipient slip with tactile sensing to gently grasp objects
Published in ICRA, 2024
This paper is about a new algorithm to control delicate robotic gripper based on the safety margin.
Grip force control under sudden change of friction
Published in Journal of Physiology, 2024
This paper is about how humans adjust their grip force under changes of load force and friction.

The Neuroscience of Touch: from finger skin deformation to perception
Published:
I had the opportunity to present my work about the perception of friction on initial contact at a Workshop at the opening of the WorldHaptics Conference 2019. 
Demo booth at the European Robotic Forum
Published:
We exhibited for the first time our tactile gripper and demonstrated its performance in grasping different kind of fruits!
MIT 4th Research SLAM
Published:
The MIT Research Slam is a research presentation that builds on the classic “elevator pitch” or 3 Minute Thesis (3MT) competition. Presenters explain their research to a curious, non-specialist audience in ≤3 minutes (strictly enforced) using one slide with no animation, video, or props. This competition is offered in more than 200 universities in more than 85 countries of the world. For the 2024 edition, I got selected to compete based on a video of my pitch. I further won both the first jury price and the general audience award!

Digital skills
Undergraduate course, Aix-Marseille University, Sport Faculty, 2018
I designed tutorials for students in sport science to teach them how to navigate the digital world. I also added an addition about how to act securely online, covering topics like password management and recognizing phishing attempts.
Human-Robot Interaction
Assistant, Technische Universitat of Delft, Mechanical Engineering, 2021
I implemented a group project format where students formed teams of four to work on a programming project involving a physical robotic research platform called Haply. The students had the creative freedom to imagine applications using the interface, leading to innovative projects such as a robot designed to clean the ocean.
