Yves Papegay

Senior researcher in the HEPHAISTOS robotics team,
I am working on Wired Parallel Robots and Service Robotics.
Mathematician and computer scientist,
I am expert on Modelling and Simulation, Symbolic Computation and Interval Analysis tools and methods.
Former high-school mathematics teacher,
I am deeply involved in scientific mediation, didactic activities and educational materials.
Entrepreneurship enthousiast,
I recently spent a year at INRIA Start-up Studio, everyday focusing on the development of my last transfer project, LOCANAC.

Projects

SymbolicC

A Mathematica Library for C code symbolic representation and C code generation. It has been transferred to Wolfram Research Inc. in 2008 and is included in a slightly different version in the recent distribution of the Wolfram Language

MOSELA

A modelling and simulation software platform based on symbolic description of aircrafts models, providing numerical code generation and documentation generation for Airbus aircrafts and flight simulators.

Les larmes du Prince

A large scenic device including a wire-driven parallel robots to mimic 3D printing with granular materials, part of a live modern art project. See presentation at "Atelier Culture-INRIA 2019" (pdf).

Robots for education

Development of various pedagogical materiel, based on robots, for teaching mathematics, physics, algorithmic and control at an high school level.
