Hello, my name is Nick Tremaroli!
Scroll to see some of my work!

I am a Computer Engineer with a focus in Robotics. I obtained my M.S. in Computer Engineering from Virginia Tech, where I designed an adaptive low-level software framework for distributed embedded systems on humanoid robots. I’ve worked on various robotics projects; my most recent was for the Italian Institute of Technology, where I developed the base pose estimator for iRonCub, the world’s first flying jet-powered humanoid robot. I also enjoy experimenting with diverse technologies, such as cryptocurrency, and working on other computer engineering projects.
Robotics Projects:
iRonCub
iRonCub is the world’s first jet-powered humanoid robot developed by the Italian Institute of Technology. The goal of iRonCub is to enhance the locomotion capabilities of humanoid robots by equipping them with the ability to fly.
PANDORA
PANDORA is a bipedal general-purpose autonomous humanoid robot designed and built by the Virginia Tech TREC Lab. PANDORA is unique due to its structural design. The majority of the robot is 3D printed. This design allows for quicker turnaround times as the structural components can be printed in under two weeks.
