The Paparazzi project loses its founder
Paparazzi is a
combined hardware and software project aimed at the creation of autonomous
flying vehicles. It has reached a point where vendors are selling
autopilot systems based on Paparazzi and universities are using it for
teaching and research. The founder of the project, Pascal Brisset,
recently died in a climbing accident; the project is now trying to figure
out how to regroup and continue his work. People who knew Pascal are
posting their feelings on this wiki page. Condolences
to all.
