PhD Candidate in Visual SLAM and Multimodal Perception for Robotics
CNRS-AIST Joint Robotics Laboratory (Japan) & UPJV-MIS (France)

CNRS-AIST JRL (Japan) / UPJV-MIS (France) — PhD Researcher (2022–Present)

• Designed and implemented multimodal RGB–IR–Depth SLAM pipelines, improving robustness in low-texture or degraded-visibility conditions.
• Developed a camera model conversion framework enabling interoperability between pinhole, fisheye, and catadioptric systems. Integrated into the open-source libPeR library.
• Led the experimental validation campaign from calibration to dataset recording, creating the public CD-MaJ Dataset and WAIr-JaM Dataset for SLAM benchmarking.
