À propos de Camille
Aerospace & Autonomous Systems Engineer | Flight Control & Autopilot Expert
I am a Control and Flight Dynamics Engineer with 6+ years of experience designing flight control systems, autopilots, sensor-fusion algorithms, and performance-optimization tools for aerospace systems and drones. I help teams model, simulate, and validate advanced control laws to improve stability, safety, and autonomy.
Core Expertise
- Flight control & autopilot design
- Control law tuning (PID, LQR, MPC, Kalman filtering)
- Drone dynamics modelling & stability analysis
- Guidance, Navigation & Control (GNC)
- Sensor fusion (IMU, GPS, magnetometer, vision)
- Matlab/Simulink, embedded C/C++
- System modelling, simulation, HIL testing
Impact & Achievements
- Designed and validated flight-control loops improving drone stability
- Developed sensor-fusion algorithms (EKF / UKF) for autonomous navigation systems
- Worked with aerospace leaders such as Parrot and ArianeGroup on high-reliability control systems
- Led a team of engineers aiming to improve drone flight endurance by 20%
I support companies developing autonomous aerial systems, aerospace control software, or drone flight-control architectures, from R&D to validation.
