About Build'in and the Co-Innovation Lab

Build’in is the experimental research platform on construction robotics of l’Ecole des Ponts ParisTech and funded by Ile-de-France region.It is part of a Co-Innovation Lab, devoted to collaborative research between academic and industrial partners.

 

Build’in is structured on the expertise of Laboratoire Navier , Imagine and other laboratories and gathers researchers from various background (mechanics of materials, structural design, computer vision, AI…) around innovative projects and demonstrators.The platform is equipped for large-scale experimentation.

 

In addition to the conventional mechanical testing devices, and the synergies with the other means of analysis available to the Ecole des Ponts ( microstructural analysis, imaging, micro-tomograph, computing cluster), Build'in also has several industrial robots. This offer is accompanied by the expertise provided by researchers, engineers and technicians dedicated to the operation of Build'in.

Build'In uses its equipment for research, teaching, and techological developments.
