Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolLuca Muratore is a technologist and lead software engineer with 13 years’ experience building robotic software architectures at Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, where he now works in the Humanoids and Human Centered Mechatronics research line. He holds a split-site PhD from the University of Manchester and IIT on flexible cross-robot frameworks that span on-board to cloud execution, and earlier earned top‑honors in Software Engineering from the University of Pisa. Luca led development of the XBot framework used across multiple EU robotics projects (FP7 WALK-MAN, H2020 CENTAURO, CONCERT, SOPHIA) and coordinated ROS end-effector industrialization efforts, blending research rigor with production-grade integration. He has hands-on experience in teleoperation, cloud robotics, grasp planning and human-robot collaboration, and played an operational role in the DARPA Robotics Challenge. Less obvious: he routinely bridges academia, industry and defense collaborations, acting as a software-architecture linchpin for startups and joint labs while maintaining an active publication record.
