François Frézeau de La Frézelière (10 June 1623 – 3 May 1702) designed a new system of artillery in the late 1600s where the cannons were of considerably lighter weight than contemporary guns. Frézelière's Artillerie de Nouvelle Invention (Artillery of the New Invention) was ahead of its time but suffered from unresolved recoil and other problems. His effort to introduce light field artillery into the French Royal Army was strenuously opposed by conservative artillery officers. The system was suppressed in 1720 and eventually replaced by the Vallière system of heavier cannons.
