A club that explores robotics, artificial intelligence, networks and systems, as well as the humanities and social sciences.
Our club, based in Nancy, focuses on major themes such as robotics, AI, networks, and systems, but also includes transversal disciplines such as the humanities and social sciences. Our research topics are based on the use of mobile, communicating cyber-physical systems in real environments, such as factories of the future, smart cities, or smart homes. We study interactions and collaborations between robots, as well as between robots and humans. We aim to introduce students from across the university to research through hands-on projects, concrete activities, and events.
All UL students are welcome, regardless of discipline, including fields like communication and management.
All club information (lists of projects, themes, events, activities…) and the registration process can be found on our COMPACT page!
