François Pierrot
François Pierrot (born November 2, 1961 in Mont Saint Martin) is Director of Research in the Montpellier Laboratory of Informatics, Robotics and Microelectronics (LIRMM)[1].
Biography
[edit]Former student at the Mechanical Engineering Department of École Normale Supérieure de Cachan, holding a PhD in Automatic Control[2] from the Montpellier 2 University, Dr. François Pierrot now serves as a Director of Research for the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) in the LIRMM. For more than 15 years, he has been working to create new robots considering simultaneously mechanical design and control strategies, on theoretical aspects as well as in close cooperation with industrial partners in the fields of industry, health and education. François Pierrot participated in the creation of the fastest parallel robot in the world's patent, acquired by Adept[3], a U.S. leader in robotic systems. In 2011 he received the First CNRS Medal of Innovation[4].
Researches
[edit]His innovative research has been distinguished in France (ADER Prize, 2003 and 2008 (in French) [5]), in Europe (European Commission IST Prize, 2002) and in Japan (Robotic Society of Japan Prize for Innovation [6]) for results in various fields such as medical robotics, entertainment robotics or industrial robotics. He is currently involved in fundamental research projects at national and European level, as well as in applied research projects in cooperation with the Tecnalia Foundation, Spain.
