Matteo Nardini

aka Shalen

I'll be right back, I'm just thinging things.

About me

Hi! I am Matteo Nardini, an Italian software engineer with a keen interest in leaning new things.

I mostly focus on the development and evolution of complex software systems with a recent detour in the world of GNSS, geodesy, telecommunications engineering and digital signal processing. I am also interested in compter graphics, embedded Linux programming and cybersecurity.

You can find me on the Internet:

Some of the stuff I have done:

HoloAssist: Integrating an augmented reality headset in a flight simulator

My master thesis. It presents a platform that allows to integrate the Microsoft Hololens into any fixed-platform flight simulator and to show augmentations placed at precise geographical locations.

Docker as a service on a blockchain

My bachelor thesis. It is about developing a decentralized marked for computation on a blockchain. Spoiler alert, it didn't work.

Micromouse

The small robot we designed as part of the Micromouse: Building an educational robot from scratch practical course during my master. Developed with Philipp Hagenlocher, Hendrik Möller, Congnan Wang.

Digit recognizer

A hand-written digit recognizer. My "Hello world!" to Rust, Deep Learning and Web Assembly.

Sometimes I like to write something, feel free to take a look ( ):

How to crash a ground station

The postmortem of that funny time in which I crashed a satellite ground station. It's weirder than you may expect.

GNSS and time

How to convert a UNIX time point to GPS time point? The answer is surprisingly easy, being sure it is correct is not.
