lsabelle Latreille, archivist in the Documentation Department Three Questions to… Key Value What role does the Documentation Department play within ISAE-SUPAERO? In the Documentation Department, we work with and for students, professors, and staff at the Institute. We promote the Institute’s research by making the necessary resources and powerful documentation tools available to users. Specifically, what is your role within the department? I am responsible for the documentation information system and policy. In conjunction with my colleagues in the Collection Division, I coordinate acquisition priorities by analysing our collections. I supervise the promotional activities and manage the spaces dedicated to the Institute’s library. Finally, I work together with the other libraries of the University of Toulouse to offer pooled services to our users and continually enhance documentation search interfaces. What do you like best in your job? I am passionate about training and supporting students in documentation research, helping them develop their critical mindset, and opening them up to culture in this place of learning and living that is the Marie Marvingt Library. research publications 3,500 theses defended at ISAE-SUPAERO since 1975 1,000 historical scientific instruments 90 ISAE-SUPAERO technological platforms 17 ISAE-SUPAERO continued its contribution to the open science movement by launching its new Open Science ISAESUPAERO archive platform in October 2023. This reliable and regularly updated research tool is free of charge and accessible to everyone, from the public to scientific research specialists. Open Science ISAE-SUPAERO is connected to HAL and theses.fr and is being continuously enriched with the results of the work of our research teams published in the most prestigious journals and conferences. Access and documentation search methods have been significantly improved in the new version launched in 2023. This project is led by the Documentation Department with the support of the Institute’s IT Department. On Open Science ISAE-SUPAERO, youwill find... The Virtual Reality Machine Means of Electrical and Cryogenic Temperature Electro-Optical Characterisation of Microelectronic Circuits The Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Makerspace Supervised by a team of eight people, the makerspace offers a wide range of production facilities such as machining, composite manufacturing, sheet metal operations, and 3Dprinting of plastics andmetals. It meetsmost manufacturing needs for the Institute’s research activities. It also has a design office and can thus provide full support from design to manufacturing to product testing and enhancement. A quality department monitors the assemblies produced. This makerspace also offers training for engineering students and master’s degree students. The ISAE-SUPAERO Neuroergonomics Centre has developed a virtual reality experimentation room dedicated to human factor research. This room is outfitted with two motion platforms (6-axis and 3-axis), enabling a participant to be immersed in a dynamic environment while using a virtual reality headset. These platforms are used to reproduce the movement of an aircraft or spacecraft during flight simu– lations, create simulated turbulence conditions to study human-system interaction with tactile devices, or induce visual-vestibular conflicts to study sensory illusions. Computers equipped with powerful graphics cards are used to develop custom environments suitable for each research project. Virtual reality headsets have been integrated with eye tracking systems since 2017, when this technology had not yet been incorporated into off-the-shelf virtual reality headsets. The CIMI research groupworking on image sensors has several devices to characterise microelectronic integrated circuits and imagers at cryogenic temperatures from 10 to 300 Kelvin (-263 to +27 °C). These cryogenic temperature characterisation decks make it possible to take measurements using a tip tester or a 6-tip cryoprober on basic microelectronic devices, such as diodes or transistors up to more complex components, such as imagers using a cryostat for complex circuits up to 120 interfaces. These testing resources, used in the context of researchwork on the behaviour of semiconductors at low temperatures, are associated with characterisation methodologies developed within the research group.
