Sergio Povoli

I'm a young AI research scientist at the Technologies of Vision Lab (TeV - https://tev.fbk.eu/) at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK). My journey in computer vision has been shaped by a deep curiosity for understanding both 2D and 3D scenes, leveraging technologies like RGB-D and multi-camera systems. Over the recent years, I’ve had the chance to work on exciting industrial projects, applying computer vision mostly to fields like sports analysis and quality control.

Lately, I’ve been exploring the intersection of robotics and Vision-Language Models (VLMs), aiming to create innovative solutions that bring these technologies closer to real-world applications. As part of the Digital Industry Center at FBK, I’m driven by the goal of bridging the gap between research and industry, ensuring that new ideas and technologies translate into meaningful impact. I’m passionate about using computer vision to tackle practical challenges and contribute to digital transformation across different sectors.

In the past, I’ve also worked with multispectral satellite imagery, which further fueled my curiosity for diverse applications of computer vision. I’m always eager to learn, explore new ideas, and collaborate with others to push the boundaries of what’s possible.
