PERPLEXUS member Francesco Mondada from EPFL organised a robotics festival ("Festival de robotique"; http://festivalrobotique.epfl.ch/) on 16 May, 2009. The festival was a great opportunity especially for children interested in technology in general and robotics in particular to get hands-on experience with the world of robotics in a multitude of expositions and stands, and the event accordingly attracted a great number of visitors. Congratulations to Francesco Mondada for the organisation of such a successful event!
