Short bio

Nicola Massari received the Laurea degree in electronic engineering from the University of Padova. Since 2000 he has worked with FBK as a researcher in the Optical Sensor and Interface group, a fabless design center developing smart image sensors and sensor interfaces. His main interests are ultra-low power vision sensors with processing capability, and special sensor architecture based on single photon avalanche diode.
