Projet RAPID EVORA

Participants: M.-O. Berger, V. Gaudillière, G. Simon.

This 3-year project is supported by DGA/DGE and led by the SBS-Interactive company. The objective is to develop a prototype for location and object recognition in large-scale industrial environments (factories, ships...), with the aim to enrich the operator's field of view with digital information and media. The main issues concern the size of the environment, the nature of the objects (often non textured, highly specular...) and the presence of repeated patterns. Use cases will be provided by industrial partners such as DCNS and Areva. A class of officer cadets and professors of the Merchant Marine School will also be associated to judge the pedagogical interest of such a tool. A PhD student, Vincent Gaudillière, has been recruited to work on this project and his contract started in December 2016.

AEN Inria SOFA-InterMedS

Participants: R. Anxionnat (CHU Nancy), M.-O. Berger, E. Kerrien.

The SOFA-InterMedS large-scale Inria initiative is a research-oriented collaboration across several Inria project-teams, international research groups and clinical partners. Its main objective is to leverage specific competences available in each team to further develop the multidisciplinary field of Medical Simulation research. Our action within the initiative takes place in close collaboration with both the MIMESIS team and the Department of diagnostic and therapeutic interventional neuroradiology of Nancy University Hospital. Two PhD students - R. Trivisonne and J. Guarcia Guevara- are currently co-supervised by the Magrit and the MIMESIS teams.
