Le micro-robot MAGPIER double champion du monde conserve son titre !

Le micro-robot français MAGPIER, co-développé par l'ISIR et le département AS2M de FEMTO-ST est arrivé premier dans l'épreuve de vitesse.

Neuf équipes étaient en compétition pour le circuit-8 dont deux françaises : le LPN/CNRS et le ISIR/FEMTO-ST/CNRS.

Le parcours en huit au travers des 4 "portes" a été réalisé en un temps record de 0.478s, soit quatre fois plus vite que l'année dernière.

La deuxième équipe est celle de Carnegie Mellon (équipe de Metin Sitti) qui a réalisé le parcours en environ 1 seconde.

Félicitations aux différents groupes à l'ISIR et à FEMTO-ST qui ont œuvré durant ces trois dernières années pour décrocher un magnifique triplé!
