Discover ISIR
Our 5 teams composed of researchers from various disciplines, around objects, applications and shared scientific matters within the two major challenges of robotics: interactivity with human persons and autonomy.
The advent of artificial intelligences and robots is inducing profound transformations in our societies. ISIR researchers help to anticipate them by working on the autonomy of machines and their ability to interact with human beings.

Surgical Robotics that scan, hear, feel and act
DEVELOPING THE NEXT GENERATION Surgeons make optimal use of all their senses to master difficult operations. When visibility is poor, they locate anatomy by palpation or they hear the optimal moment to stop drilling. Who would, today, entrust the own body to a surgeon that uses only direct vision,…

VeriDream: reinforcing the learning of robots through dreams
Artificial intelligence helps robots to perform tasks by themselves. They can learn and train while disconnected, through dream-like simulations. However, deviations from reality and the infinite choices available in real life limit the effectiveness of these methods. A problem that the VeriDream project, supported by the European Innovation Council,…
Holding hands may be more effective in group decision making than talking to each other
Communicating is part of our daily lives, but do we really know what communicating is? We are naturally tempted to think about speech. We can easily guess that we can communicate through gestures like in sign language, or more generally when our gestures, postures and expressions complement speech. But…
