Soft  and Continuum MicroRobotics 


Kanty Rabenorosoa received an M.S. degree in electrical engineering from the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France, in 2007, and the Ph.D. degree in automatic control from the University of Franche-Comté, Besançon, France, in 2010. 

From 2011 to 2012, he was a Postdoctoral Fellow with Laboratoire d’Informatique, de Robotique et de Micro-électronique de Montpellier, University of Montpellier, Montpellier, France. He was an Associate Professor at ENSMM-SUPMICROTECH from 2012 to 2023. He is currently a full Professor (section 61) at University of Franche-Comté with the Automatic Control and Micro-Mechatronic Systems (AS2M) department of FEMTO-ST Institute. His research interests include mechatronics, smart actuator, soft and continuum microrobotics for medical applications.

He was involved in Labex ACTION (ANR-11-LABX-0001-01), EUR EIPHI (ANR-17-EURE-0002), and PEPR O2R. He has participated in several European projects (EUPASS, ARAKNES, μRALP) and ANR projects (NEMRO, µRoCS, Greenshield, OrigaBot). With colleagues, they got a Jury Special Awards in MICRONORA 2014 and a MEDTEC 2015 Innovation Awards. He was awarded a CNRS temporary assignment for one semester in 2022 and visiting researcher at ULB.
