Fascinated by the ancient greek technology, I decided to build a crane.
The structure of the crane is made of wood, but many of the components are 3D printed. A complex network infrastrucure, also allows to control the crane remotely via a PS2 joystick.

A pair of simple but spectacular to see model rockets.
The rockets were built to celebrate my BSc in Mechanical Engineering, and in one of them an on board computer was installed to telemetry the flight data.

Personal transportation vehicle, in collaboration with 'RIMAC Automobili'
Valid as the final project for my BSc in Mechanical Engineering, this experience last for 3 months and was a great opportunity to learn and collaborate with other students coming from different backgrounds.

A demonstrative but functional model of a rotor.
The rotor is taken from an old lawn mower and is driven by a custom electronic circuit. The speed of the rotor can be controlled by a potentiometer.

An home made night photo trap to capture the wildlife in the garden.
The camera is given by an old smartphone and the trigger is sent by a PIR sensor.

A model car that can automously navigate in traffic roads.
The car is equipped with a camera, a lidar and a GPS module. The main control unit is written in Python and runs on a Raspberry Pi 4.

Script to compute distances and azimuthal directions between two points on the Earth's surface.
A live version of the code is available through the associated portal (see Portal section).

The web ecosystem behind this website.
After many iterations, I finally transformed this web space into a personal playground where I can experiment with new technologies and share my projects.

A compact CNC plotter.
Based on Arduino and Canny edge algorithm, Gorlu is able to process any digital image and generate a physical, post it size, monochromatic representation of it.

After years of storage, I decidec to restore a rusty model engine and build a proper test bench to tune it.

A wooden desk lamp with homino design.
Inspired by a commercial lamp that my sister bought, I decided to make my own version of it.

A wooden platform built on a tree 12.5 meters high.
The height and the playground made to carry all the material to its place were probably more fun than the construction itself.
