Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimone Nardi is a systems engineer and robotics specialist with 13 years of experience designing embedded vision, UAV payloads, and distributed robotic systems from research to product. Based in Pisa, he has led cross-functional programs—most recently as Technical Program Manager and High Tech Innovation Specialist—guiding teams that built autonomous multicopter navigation, AI-powered powerline inspection, and coordinated UAV–UGV precision farming solutions. His work blends deep mathematical training (PhD-level applied mathematics to industrial robotics) with hands-on system design, real-time tracking, and geometric algorithm development for complex sensors. Simone has orchestrated multi-partner research projects and moved swarm robotics concepts into demonstrable prototypes, a thread that runs through both his industry and academic roles. Colleagues describe him as a practical innovator who pairs leadership and mentorship with low-level engineering rigor, plus the occasional drone‑pilot perspective that keeps solutions grounded in real-world operation.
