About
Oriane Dermy is a leading researcher in human-aware robotics, specializing in whole-body control, physical human-robot interaction, and movement prediction. Her work centers on enabling robots to seamlessly collaborate with humans by anticipating their actions and adapting control strategies accordingly. A key contribution is her involvement in the FP7 EU CoDyCo project, which advanced whole-body controllers that exploit both rigid and compliant contact dynamics, as detailed in her highly cited 2017 paper (30 citations). Dermy has also pioneered multi-modal intention prediction using probabilistic movement primitives (ProMPs), allowing robots to forecast human whole-body movements—a critical capability for safe, ergonomic collaboration and assistive technologies. Her 2018 papers on this topic (16 and 8 citations) demonstrate how predictive models can alert users to potentially dangerous motions. Additionally, her work on one-shot evaluation of robotic arm interfaces (7 citations) shows her commitment to making robotics accessible to non-experts. With a focus on bridging control theory and human-centered design, Dermy’s research is shaping the future of intuitive, safe, and responsive collaborative robots.
