Hello there, I'm Federico Zappone

I am a computer vision, robotics and machine learning engineer.

My main interests are in the aerospace field (mainly atmospheric entry, autonomous descent and landing, and simulation) and planetary robotics which is what got me interested in computer vision during high school (especially stereo vision and reconstruction).

In those two areas I consider myself quite capable in solving and optimizing simple to moderately complex entry profiles and in the development of autonomous vision based wheeled or aerial robotics systems working in unknown environments.
Today I'm very interested in applying novel machine learning technologies, such as deep learning an deep reinforcement learning, to problems in both these disciplines.

Even though I'm very far from being an expert (or even remotely fluent for that matter) in the little free time at my disposal I find interest in high energy physics and I'm trying to study as much of it as I can.

Used to speedrun games with some of the best times in the world:

World of Warcraft Vanilla 1-60: 5 days 2 hours /played
World of Warcraft Classic 1-60: 4 days 6 hours /played (on launch)
Half Life 2: 2 hours 48 minutes (old engine)
The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind: 6 minutes 18 seconds

I'm very curious about all things in life, science, and numbers.
