Leadership within the Scientific Community

• Vincent Padois is, together with Olivier Stasse from LAAS, the co-animator of GT7 “Humanoid Robotics” of the CNRS “Groupement de Recherche en Robotique” (GDR). The role of animator consists in organizing regular workshops in humanoid robotics with the members of the French research community in this domain. It also consists in reporting strategic elements to the GDR in order to better organize the structure of research in Robotics in France.

Scientific Expertise

• Vincent Padois is a reviewer for the 2nd European COVR call.

• Vincent Padois and David Daney are reviewers for the best PhD thesis award of GDR Robotique.

• David Daney is an expert of “Robot Boost” Nouvelle-Aquitain's progam.

• Jean-Marc Salotti and David Daney are official animators of the Humans Systems Interactions AESE DAS (Strategic Activities Domain of the Aerospace Valley Pole), which gathers all regional actors concerned with human factors, human systems interactions, and collaborative robotics mainly in the aerospace sector, but not limited to that domain. At least 2 daily workshops are organized each year for the members of the group in order to focus on a specific issue. Jean-Marc Salotti and David Daney are also solicited to examine regional projects linked to the DAS in order to provide advice and eventually to participate to the labelling process of the pole.

• The Auctus team is involved in the “Aquitaine robotics” cluster, which brings together robotics players in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. David Daney and Jean-Marc Salotti respectively represent Inria and Ensc on the board of directors. David Daney is a member of the executive board. David Daney and Jean-Marc Salotti are respectively president and vice-president of the labelling committee which promotes all robotics projects for the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region.

Research Administration

• Sylvain Pion represents the Auctus team in the CUMI-R (Comité des Utilisateurs des Moyens Informatiques) committee of Inria Bordeaux.

• Jean-Marc Salotti participated to the Inria Committee directed by Clair Poignard and dedicated to the selection of research candidates for delegations, PhD and Postdoctoral positions.
