Hello there!

I am Andrea Ronco, an electrical engineer from Turin, Italy, based in Zurich since 2019.
I completed my MSc in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at ETH Zurich, where I focused on embedded systems, low-power design, sensors and sensor fusion, and machine learning topics.
My work has developed across both academic and industrial environments. In research, I worked on TinyML and wearable sensing systems, including projects involving radar-based gesture recognition, vital-sign monitoring, and resource-constrained embedded intelligence. In product development, I worked on neurorehabilitation technology with a system-level perspective spanning hardware, firmware, software integration, and technical roadmapping.
Across these experiences, I have consistently worked on complete technical pipelines: sensor and hardware bring-up, embedded firmware, signal processing, data collection, model development, and deployment constraints on low-power devices. I am particularly interested in systems where practical engineering constraints and machine learning meet, especially in wearable and human-centered applications.
More recently, my focus has included AI for wearable devices, with attention to gesture and time-series understanding. I enjoy the part of this work where careful engineering turns noisy real-world signals into something reliable and useful.
This website is a place where I collect selected projects, publications, and occasional technical notes. It started as a way to keep a clean record of what I build and learn over time, from course and research work to product-oriented development. I also use it as a lightweight lab notebook for ideas, experiments, and implementation details that are useful to revisit later. In short, it is both a portfolio and a technical archive.
Outside of engineering, I enjoy spending time in the mountains around Switzerland, especially hiking and skiing. I also enjoy stories in books and films, and I am always happy to discuss science fiction, including a *(properly) opinionated take on the new Star Wars trilogy.
