☕️About Me
I am a Fixed-term Assistant Professor at the Politecnico di Torino, Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (DIMEAS), and Co-founder & CEO of Therness, a Politecnico di Torino spinoff. My expertise lies in non-destructive testing, active thermography and welding process monitoring, with a focus on translating AI-driven inspection into industrial practice.
🚀 Commercial Impact
My research has been translated into Therness, a spinoff that builds AI-powered thermal monitoring for weld quality assurance. The current portfolio includes:
- HeatCore software suite — Basic, AI and Robotic tiers for live weld-pool view, inline anomaly detection and turnkey robotic cells.
- HeatCam thermal cameras — IR-C industrial reference sensor (up to 2000 °C, PoE/GigE Vision) and IR-S compact variant for tight or embedded installs.
- PoolVision — 480 fps visual camera with laser-safe illumination.
- HeatScan — purpose-built monitoring for induction pipe welding.
- AI NDT Agent — free tool that generates ISO 9712 / ASNT Level III compliant NDT procedures.
