Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEric Petit is an experienced research engineer specializing in human–machine interaction and signal processing, with a PhD from Grenoble Institute of Technology and over two decades at Orange Labs. He invented and co-developed the DGIL gesture recognition engine now embedded in Orange-branded smartphones, and since 2012 has focused on "Design for All" touch interfaces that adapt to users’ individual constraints. His background spans acoustic signal transmission, echo cancellation, hearing correction in phones, embedded video compression and handwriting recognition, giving him a rare end-to-end view from low-level signal algorithms to usable interfaces. Based in Grenoble, he blends rigorous academic training with product-driven research, embedding accessibility and personalization upstream in design systems like MenuDfA. Colleagues value his pragmatic approach to solving the strongest interaction constraints first, turning theoretical methods into deployable technologies.
