Designed and written by Jean-Pierre Charras, a researcher at LIS (Laboratoire des Images et des Signaux) and a teacher in IUT de Saint Martin d'Heres (France), in the field of electrical engineering and image processing. Kicad is a set of four softwares and a project manager: * Eeschema: Schematic entry. * Pcbnew: Board editor. * Gerbview: GERBER viewer (photoplotter documents). * Cvpcb: footprint selector for components used in the circuit design. * Kicad: project manager.
