I build things at the intersection of software and hardware, from Edge AI systems to IoT controllers to parallel GPU algorithms, with the occasional DIY build on the side. I'm endlessly curious, and a firm believer that you don't truly 'own' a system until you've understood exactly how it works under the hood.

// 01 · about me
Passionate geek,
practical engineer.
From Corbola to...
I'm a Computer Engineering student at the University of Bologna (Alma Mater Studiorum), currently pursuing my Master's Degree after graduating, but I'm originally from Corbola, a small quiet town (really?) in the Rovigo province (Veneto).
I love digging into how things actually work and I define myself as a practical person. My journey has taken me from designing real-time safety systems for industrial robots to optimizing parallel algorithms on GPUs.
When I'm not staring at a terminal, I'm likely eating sushi 🍣, drawing caricatures, overthinking a graphic design layout 🖱️, or lately tinkering with 3D printing and electronics 🔧.
I believe knowledge is worthless if it's not shared.

Things I've built.
Selected work from university courses, internships, and personal curiosity.
EdgeCV4Safety
🛡️ AI-Driven Contextual Safety System for Industry 5.0
Modular Computer Vision system replacing physical safety barriers. Deployed on NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin: YOLO + UniDepth/DepthAnything over ONNX Runtime, robot control via RTDE, real-time proximity awareness for Universal Robots.
Inference
~5 FPS
on Jetson AGX Orin via TensorRT
Architecture
Super-repo with Git Submodules: strict decoupling of Vision and Robot Control components.
Spaghetti
🍝 Slice and Print from Your Phone
Phone-first web app to slice 3D models with the OrcaSlicer CLI and print them: share a model or a link, place it on the plate in 3D, slice, confirm the bed is clear, print. Printers plug in through adapters; the first one supports the Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2.
SliceCeipt
🧾 Split Shared Receipts, Down to the Cent
Mobile-first PWA for splitting a shared receipt (photo, PDF, or manual entry) among multiple people, item by item. Fully static and offline-capable: OCR and parsing run client-side, no backend, no accounts.
