Francesco Mondada (born 17 March 1967) is a Swiss professor〔(Press Release of the ETH Board, about the nomination of professors on May 24, 2013 )〕 in artificial intelligence and robotics. He got a Master's degree in Microengineering at the EPFL in 1991 and a Ph.D. degree in 1997. He is one of the creators of the Khepera and directed the design of the S-bot, the e-puck, the marXbot and the Thymio mobile robots. Together, these robots are mentioned in more than 7000 research articles.〔(List of scientific papers mentioning the Khepera, the S-bot, the e-puck , the marXbot or the Thymio robots. )〕 In particular the Khepera robot〔(Main paper describing the Khepera robot and the approach of robot miniaturization for research )〕 is a milestone in the field of bio-inspired and evolutionary robotics. He was one of the founders and director of (K-team SA ) from its creation 1995 to 2000,〔(Official Trade and Companies Register of Canton de Vaud, data about K-Team SA, see cancellations for the history )〕 and one of the founders of Calerga Sarl in 2001〔(Official Trade and Companies Register of Canton de Vaud, data about Calerga SàrL )〕 and Mobsya in 2010.〔(Official Trade and Companies Register of Canton de Vaud, data about Mobsya Association, see cancellations for the history )〕 He has received several industrial and academic prizes, including the University Latsis〔(List of Latsis prizes given to the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne )〕 and the (Credit Suisse Award for Best Teaching ).〔(List of Credit Suisse Award for Best Teaching laureates at the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne )〕 His recent work concerns collective robotics and education. ==Selected publications== * J.
