-/ LUCA LOLLI

Built a rendering engine for visualizing large scale LiDAR datasets in realtime. Contributed to the frontend and WebAssembly development to stream massive point clouds and globe scale 3D Tiles directly in the browser.

Led the 7-person engineering team building the 3D simulation software used to design and configure Holoplot's Matrix Array sound systems. This Holoplot soundsystem was used for The Sphere in Las Vegas, the world's largest spherical venue.

Defined the software architecture from the ground up, implementing an Entity Component System (ECS) with EnTT for data-oriented performance. Established Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, and development practices that transformed a prototype into production grade infrastructure.

Worked on Ableton Live 10's UI and font rendering systems. Large, mature codebase shipping to millions of users on Windows and macOS.

Performance work: SIMD vectorization, cache friendly data structures for CPU software rendering. Also shipped the "True Stereo Panning" DSP feature.

Lead developer for the Micropia Museum installation in Amsterdam. Created a synchronized rendering system across a tower of 54 networked monitors running on multiple computers, displaying the microscopic world at various scales.

Achieved frame perfect synchronization to create a unified 54 screen canvas, solving complex timing and network coordination challenges in Unity Engine.

Developed the Desktop DevKit for Google's Project Soli,a micro Doppler radar sensor capable of detecting sub-millimeter hand gestures. Built the tooling that enabled interaction designers to prototype gesture based interfaces, technology now integrated into Pixel phones.

Technical R&D for the "Meandering River" installation. Implemented physics based fluid dynamics and procedural erosion simulations running in realtime on the GPU using compute shaders.
