Summary
Jungho Moon is an Assistant Professor and UAV flight control software engineer with nine years of experience designing and validating flight control, guidance, and contingency management systems for a wide range of unmanned aircraft from small drones to tactical and strategic platforms. He combines academic rigor (Ph.D. in Aerospace from KAIST) with hands-on industry practice at Korean Air, leading model-based development, HIL labs, flight testing, and DO-178 level system engineering. His expertise spans control law design, 6DOF flight dynamics, navigation and wind estimation filters, and integrating AI/ML into autonomy and collision-avoidance systems. As lead of the FALCON autonomous flight lab, he bridges research and practical demonstrators, often producing end-to-end toolchains for automatic flight-test analysis and simulator development. Notably, he specializes in making flight-critical software certifiable and testable through model-based workflows and robust HIL infrastructures.
