“One of the founding fathers of fiber-optic gyroscope technology, he has been a brilliant
inventor throughout his career, holding over 60 patents. After studying physics and optics
at École Normale Supérieure de Saint-Cloud, Thomson-CSF central research laboratory
and Stanford University, he designed the tunable laser called Tunics, which contributed
to the success of Photonetics. Subsequently, he served as Chief Science Officer (CSO) at
iXsea, then iXblue, and now exail. His expertise in optics-photonics also led him to become
the president of the French Optical Society and the European Optical Society, and finally,
a member of the French Academy of Technologies.”
