Due to the visibility of our experimental platforms, the team is often requested to present its research activities to students, researchers or industry. Our panel of demonstrations allows us to highlight recent results concerning the positioning of an ultrasound probe by visual servoing, grasping and dual arm manipulation by Romeo, vision-based shared control using our haptic device for object manipulation, the control of a fleet of quadrotors, vision-based detection and tracking for space navigation in a rendezvous context, the semi-autonomous navigation of a wheelchair, and augmented reality applications. Some of these demonstrations are available as videos on VispTeam YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/VispTeam/videos). This year there were among others, demonstrations organized for the HCERES expert committee that evaluated IRISA, about twenty people affiliated to the CNRS electronics network, students of the “Innovation et entreprenariat” Master, those of the L3 R&I at ENS Rennes, about twenty students from the “Ecole des Mines de Nancy”, several classes of high school students around Rennes, without forgetting the members of the Ph.D. thesis juries.
