Timothée is a research engineer working in the Departments of Mathematics and Mechanics of the Royal Military Academy.
His research focuses on developing Robotic swarm solutions for search and rescue purpose.
He graduated with a Master of Science in Robotics in 2020 at Heriot Watt University, UK and an Engineering degree in Mechatronics from ESME Sudria, France. His thesis focuses on developing a SLAM algorithm for an underwater robot using, sonar, IMU and DVL.
In 2021, Timothée joined the Belgian Royal Military Academy to contribute to the Virtual Reality Project. During this role, he had to design VR simulations for firefighters and defense personnel. His contributions to this project were diverse: converting airsoft weapons to make them compatible with the simulation, designing a connected fire hose in 3D and creating an algorithm to allow trainers to transform any architect's plan into a 3D environment using computer vision tools.
In 2023, Timothée joined Mechanical department to contribute to the DREAM project responsible for developing a new concept of semi-autonomous assisted teleoperation.
