Summary
Mathieu Poirier is a research engineer specializing in human-computer interaction and interactive systems with 25 years of experience bridging academic robotics and applied IHM for aeronautics. He leads development of the open-source djnn/smala framework at ENAC, designing high-performance, multi-OS UI runtimes that help designers and programmers collaborate on post-WIMP interfaces. With a PhD in humanoid robotics, he has deep expertise in real-time, distributed C++ systems—validated on the HRP-2 robot—and a track record of embedding motion capture, planning and HID integrations into operational platforms. Previously he directed R&D teams building tactile and multimodal interfaces (C#, WPF, computer vision) for clients like Airbus and Nespresso. Comfortable publishing and presenting at top robotics conferences, he blends rigorous research methods with product-focused engineering and continuous integration practices. A less obvious strength is his experience mentoring international teams in both French and English, gained during multi‑national projects and a research stint in Japan.
