HCI researcher and interaction designer, I develop creative hardware and software experiences that bring technology closer to human nature. I am currently postdoctoral researcher at Saarland University, I did my PHD thesis at Télécom Paris and HCI La Sorbonne. Get my Resume.
These days, I question existing devices form factor and explore how affective communication can be mediated through anthropomorphic devices to leverage new human experiences.
Skin-On Interfaces are devices that augment existing devices with Artifical realistic skin. Human skin is the best interface for interaction. I propose this new paradigm in which interactive devices have their own artificial skin, thus enabling new forms of input gestures for end-users.

MobiLimb is a robotic finger that can be added to mobile devices. What if smartphones could touch us and reach our world? This project explores a future where anthropomorphic devices bring news input and output capabilities to existing devices.

This project explores how humans perceive emotions from touch movements performed by a robot. Touching the forearm with different speed, velocity, and force can convey different emotions, which can be used in VR for mediated communication.
View project >I successfully defended my Ph.D defense, I'm now postdoctoral researcher at the HCI lab of Saarland University with prof. Jürgen Steimle.
You can find a selection of media coverage of Skin-On on the research page.
I will present Skin-On Interfaces at UIST conference. You can get the paper here.
The paper Skin-On Interfaces has been accepted at UIST conference.
I am now and for the next few working at Bristol Interaction Group (BIG) with Anne Roudaut
Previous works, that regroups projects in Generative Design, Fabrication and miscellaneous Interactive exploration.
