Beyond research
Limix and Talking Hands
From 2015 to 2022 I was co-founder and CEO of Limix, a spin-off of the University of Camerino, with my friend Francesco Pezzuoli. Our main project, Talking Hands, was a data glove that recognises gestures and turns sign language into speech, built for people with speech or language impairments. Limix was later acquired.
Along the way: an EU H2020 SME Instrument grant, the Seal of Excellence for Phase 2, the R.O.M.E. Prize at Maker Faire Rome, finalist at Chivas Venture, and two patents. It took me to San Francisco, Dubai and Brussels, and taught me a lot.
I also teach mathematics at secondary school (IPSIA Don Pocognoni, Matelica), currently on leave.
