More than a hobby
Quadcopters
I am a quadcopter builder and pilot.
S500
APM-GPS-Telemetry-Gimbal
This quadcopter is totally autonomous and can carry up to 400g of pay load. It is useful for film making, mapping, and/or surveying. It can fly for up to 20 min and has First Person View equipment. Linked to the ground station, thanks to telemetry, its route can be planned and controlled.
QAV250
FPV-Naze32-BetaFlight-BLHeli
This small factor quadcopter carries an HD cam and thanks to the FPV equipment it can be controlled through goggles like FatSharks. It is the perfect machine to race and perform rolls and loops.
Intelligent Watering project
Optimized and Autonomous Gardening
Jardinage Autonome et Optimisé (JAO)
Version 1
I had the idea of an autonomous watering system in order to match plants’ needs. This subject has been validated by the administration and I managed 2 years a 5 persons team that has won ECE Innov’ Award Public Price.
This project combines technical aspects (Linux, C, SQL, PHP, HTML, Raspberry I/O) and scientific aspects (evapotranspiration by Penman Monteith.
This project has given me a lot of new skills such as team management, task distribution, marketing and design. We hope to go far with this project.
Version 2
This second version demonstrates viability of a mechanical water dispenser for each plants.
It also improves reliability and solves several bugs.
Experience
Semester abroad
Stellenbosch University, South Africa
This experience enabled me to develop myself. Indeed, leaving our comfort zone increases our personal development. Moreover, South African culture is educative thanks to its deep history and its incredible melting pot.

Waiter
June 2014
During this month I learnt a lot about this job which is really hard because of the timetable. I realised how important the hierarchy is in a company.
Farm worker
2011 - 2015
(summer)
I worked for 4 summers on a farm. I find this to be an important opportunity in order to be more open-minded.
The work and the timetable weren’t regular, I worked 7 days a week.
I harvested wheat, barley and rape.
Furthermore, I did crop selection and managed a team of 3 labourers.
This job has inspired me to look for more opportunities to show my skill in team management as well as show more responsibility and hard work.
