During these years, he has developed prototypes, evaluated technologies, met with research teams and analyzed the markets. With the rise of mobile technologies and the coming together of key collaborators, the potentials have now become the possibilities: In 2005 he launched Aldebaran Robotics, the first French company dealing with humanoid robotics. Nao, the current flag product, is the most used humanoid robot for academic purposes worldwide.

Aldebaran Robotics has chosen to make Nao's technology available to any higher education program. Fully interactive, fun and permanently evolving, Nao is a standard platform for teaching students of all levels. Robotics Software - Nightly.
