Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBastien Jacquet is a computer vision expert and cofounder with 11 years of experience building real-time 2D/3D perception systems, especially for LiDAR, stereo, SLAM and dynamic 3D+time capture. Based in Lyon, he combines deep academic grounding (ENS, École des Ponts, ETH Zürich) with hands-on engineering, having led Kitware Europe’s vision group and shipped production-grade C++/ROS tooling for LiDAR visualization and SLAM. He now unlocks customers’ R&D at Perception4D, focusing on capture, analysis and visualization pipelines that bridge research and deployable products. An active open-source contributor, his work spans VeloView and ParaView enhancements and unexpected cross-domain improvements like UI/UX fixes in Gramps, showing a willingness to tackle both core algorithms and usability. Comfortable moving between strategy, team leadership and low-level sensor calibration, he’s as likely to tune pcap processing or calibration parameters as to design go-to-market vision for new markets.

Source code for Gramps Genealogical program
Role in this project:Full-stack Developer
Full-stack DeveloperContributions:26 commits, 3 comments in 2 years 2 months
Contributions summary:Bastien contributed to the Gramps genealogical program by implementing new features and fixing bugs related to user interface elements. They focused on improving drag-and-drop functionality within the application, specifically for person, family, and object references in various editors and views. The commits show they enhanced the user experience by adding support for dragging objects from different areas, like EditPerson and RelationshipView, and prefilling PersonRef when dropping a Person on Association EmbeddedTab.
