Résumé
Abstract

Les techniques de détection des ondes gravitationnelles ont été développées à un haut degré de sophistication. Je passe en revue les principes de base de la détection interférométrique, puis je décris lʼétat de lʼart actuel et enfin les plans pour le futur proche.

The technology of gravitational wave detection has been developed to a high degree. I review the basic principles of interferometric detectors, and give an account of the current state of the art, and plans for the near-term future.
