Special Projects
We have developed and continue to develop customized tools to meet the scientific communication and dissemination needs of research foundations, universities, and companies.
HOP | Hands-On Physics
2022-2025 | Nel 2022 vinciamo un bando del CERN di Ginevra per lo sviluppo di un kit didattico da portare nelle scuole, in collaborazione con Fondazione Agnelli e Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare. Il punto di forza del risultato? Un kit completo, fortemente esperienziale, e realizzato con materiali semplici e riciclabili – e quindi ad un costo contenuto. Dal 2022 al 2025 HOP | Hands-On Physics è stato usato in 2000+ scuole, accompagnato da un percorso di formazione docenti.
ENG | In 2022, we won a CERN Geneva tender to develop an educational kit for use in schools, in collaboration with Fondazione Agnelli and the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN). The key strength of the result? A complete, highly experiential kit made with simple, recyclable materials — and therefore at an affordable cost. From 2022 to 2025, HOP | Hands-On Physics was used in 2,000+ schools, accompanied by a teacher training program.

Sparkle | Explorer Equipment
2025-2026 | In collaborazione con la Fondazione Bruno Kessler, abbiamo realizzato Explorer Equipment, un kit didattico per studentesse e studenti delle scuole secondarie di primo grado, e Explorer Equipment Teacher, contenente una serie di sensori di precisione sviluppati da FBK. Il progetto è tutt'ora in corso.
ENG | In collaboration with Fondazione Bruno Kessler, we developed Explorer Equipment, an educational kit for lower secondary school students, and Explorer Equipment Teacher, which includes a range of precision sensors developed by FBK. The project is still ongoing.

Ed-Tech | Biotech Lab VR
2025 | Sviluppato per l'Università dell'Insubria, è un software didattico in realtà virtuale che simula un laboratorio di biotecnologie nel dettaglio. L'esperienza immersiva permette agli studenti di esercitarsi su procedure complesse e lunghe senza alcun rischio legato alla manipolazione di sostanze tossiche o a errori manuali. Il simulatore si concentra su tre ambiti di analisi principali: 1) Tessuti Vegetali, dove vengono simulati protocolli plurigiornalieri come disidratazione, inclusione in resina e analisi al microscopio di campioni botanici, 2) Tessuti Animali, che permette di eseguire studi morfologici e biochimici attraverso tecniche specialistiche come la colorazione tricromica di Masson; e 3) Cromatografia e Pigmenti, dove è possibile svolgere estrazione di pigmenti, separazione tramite TLC, purificazione su colonna e identificazione dei composti con lampada UV.
ENG | Developed for the University of Insubria, this is an educational virtual reality software that simulates a biotechnology laboratory in detail. The immersive experience allows students to practice complex, time-consuming procedures without any risk associated with handling toxic substances or making manual errors.
The simulator focuses on three main areas of analysis: 1) Plant Tissues, where multi-day protocols such as dehydration, resin embedding, and microscopic analysis of botanical samples are simulated; 2) Animal Tissues, which allows students to carry out morphological and biochemical studies using specialized techniques such as Masson’s trichrome staining; 3) Chromatography and Pigments, where students can perform pigment extraction, separation by TLC, column purification, and compound identification using a UV lamp.

Strumenti Storici | Il piano inclinato di Galileo
2024 | Su commissione dell'Università Alma Mater di Bologna, realizziamo una riproduzione fedele dello strumento che Galileo Galilei utilizzò per studiare il moto uniformemente accelerato (ca. 1401). Lo strumento è attualmente utilizzato nel corso "Laboratorio di Didattica della Fisica" del Dipartimento di Fisica e Astronomia dell'Università di Bologna.
ENG | Commissioned by the University of Bologna’s Alma Mater, we created a faithful reproduction of the instrument Galileo Galilei used to study uniformly accelerated motion (c. 1401). The instrument is currently used in the “Physics Education Laboratory” course at the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Bologna.

Strumenti Storici | La camera oscura
2026 | Su commissione dell'Università Alma Mater di Bologna, realizziamo una riproduzione in scala ridotta (2 metri di altezza) della camera oscura utilizzata da Thomas Young per studiare la luce e rivelarne il comportamento come particella e onda. Lo strumento è attualmente utilizzato nel corso "Laboratorio di Didattica della Fisica" del Dipartimento di Fisica e Astronomia dell'Università di Bologna.
ENG | Commissioned by the University of Bologna’s Alma Mater, we created a reduced-scale reproduction (2 metres high) of the camera obscura used by Thomas Young to study light and reveal its particle and wave behavior. The instrument is currently used in the “Physics Education Laboratory” course at the Department of Physics and Astronomy of the University of Bologna.
