ANR Entracte Fall School

From 2014-OCT-6 to 2014-OCT-10

Place: LAAS-CNRS, Responsable: Nicolas Mansard


Summary
ENTRACTE is a ANR project dedicated to motion and manipulation path planning for humanoid robots and virtual avatars, by the understanding of human mechanics and the modelisation of its actions.

Those courses will provide mathematical and programming tools to approach ENTRACTE topics. They are about control models, libraries and softwares which are developped by the Gepetto team.
