ABSTRACT={Through the example of the infantryman, this article proposes methodological tools to exploit imaginaries from science fiction (film, manga, novel, comics, etc.) in a design approach. Based on a corpus of nearly 300 references, it shows that the imaginaries should be used in a differentiated way according to the medium that is considered and that it is possible to distinguish complementary context issues and use issues . The article discusses the different forms of strategic issues and compares the solutions proposed in these imaginaries with those taking place in the fields of the military industry. In conclusion, the article discusses issues concerning the circulation of imaginaries between cultural and military industries.}}
