Summary
🤩
RockstarFederico Felici is a software engineer in Lausanne with 9 years’ experience applying physics modelling and control engineering to improve tokamak fusion plasma control for platforms like TCV and ITER. He blends rigorous control systems know-how with modern software practices, shipping tools that bridge simulation, real-time control and experimentation. As an active open-source contributor, he created CLove-Unit and FUnreal and extended Google's popular Draco library with a Maya plugin and Python/C++ bindings to bring compressed 3D meshes into production pipelines. Comfortable across stacks, he translates domain-specific requirements into practical code for high-stakes scientific environments. Colleagues rely on him for solving hard integration problems where physics, control and software intersect.

Contributions summary:Federico primarily focused on extending the `draco` library's functionality by integrating it with the Maya software. Their commits added a Maya plugin, enabling the decoding and potential encoding of Draco-compressed 3D meshes within the Maya environment. The contributions included the creation of a Python wrapper, a C++ library for decoding/encoding, and necessary adjustments to adapt Draco's compression features to the Maya software. This included handling vertex, face, normal, and UV data to interface with Maya's mesh system.
