Jean-Philippe Condomines is Assistant Professor in Guidance Navigation and Control in the UAV team at the French National Civil Aviation University (ENAC), in Toulouse, France, where he contributes to the development of an open source pilot for the Paparazzi project. He received in 2015 his Ph.D. in Automatic Control from the Higher Institute of Aeronautics and Space (ISAE), in Toulouse, France.
