ROBOTEX , THE NATIONAL NETWORK OF ROBOTICS PLATFORM

The French government has decided to invest over 2 years 10 million Euro for equipment of national
research platforms in various domains of robotics. This national network of platforms is called
ROBOTEX. The main goal of the ROBOTEX is to setup coherent infrastructures of technical
equipments in order to:
- Promote scientific exchange and development of collaborative work between academic
research teams, companies and end- users, and provide durable and reusable expertise and
know–how,
- Give researchers high-level equipments with a facilitated access,
- Increase the visibility of the French robotics academic research and its international impact.
It particularly concerns the strengthening of its European scientific leadership, and the
increase of collaborative works with leading European countries as well as at an international
level,
- Boost the competitiveness of French companies and open new markets based on robotic
technologies.

The experimental platforms of the ROBOTEX national network mostly belong to joint CNRS-university
laboratories with strong research and development activities in robotics, and having the necessary
human resources to give access and provide optimal exploitation of the platforms. This national
network links together most of the leading academic robotics research teams in France.

It is structured around five application domains:

- Production Robotics,
- Mobile Robotics,
- Medical Robotics,
- Micro-Nanorobotics,
- Humanoid Robotics and Natural Interactions.
