This is a 3D printing machine working in a 12x8m room

depositing layers of glass powder on a fixed trajectory (see video)

(here the structure with 2.5 tons of powder and a robot travel of 9 km)

• Interval analysis: an introduction on the principle:english version, version francaise
• Wire-driven parallel robot MARIONET-REHAB: avi video (basic motion),used as a crane (fast motion, 4 wires) , for rehabilitation (patient has to point at an object on the screen),
• rescue crane MARIONET-CRANE: experiments, changing mode,
• MARIONET-ASSIST: lifting operation at home
• MARIONET-SCHOOL: elementary motion
• medical robot ARES: conceptual motion
• motion base: square trajectory,vibration
• ANG walking aid: walking analysis, moving furniture, fall detection and recovery
• Robotics and art: the concert resulting from our 2015 School "Robotics and Art" where 4 artists
  (Isabelle Chemin, Christian Valezy, Guido Hubner, Rainer Frey) were initiated to robotics
• Robotics and art: a very large 3D printing machine developed for the Vitrification project of Anne-Valérie Gasc. The machine (here in Amilly in 2019) deposits layers of glass microbeads powder on a fixed trajectory.
  A similar robot was used for the exhibition Blind machines presented at the Espace de l'Art Concret in 2022 for 4 months. During the period the robot has traveled 9 km and has deposited 2.5 tons of powder.
• Green robot for pick&place operation: pick&place is a very common industrial operation. It is usually performed with not very energy efficient robots
  that futhermore use powerfull computer. We decided to develop a "green" robot which is energy efficient first by using a
  cable-driven parallel robot and, second, by using an electro-mechanical control system without any computer
