The protagonist of this new appointment of " RomeCup Stories" is Carmine Nasti, Professor of Electronics and Electronic Systems Lab Manager at the Istituto tecnico industriale Galileo Ferraris in the Naples Scampia neighbourhood.
Interviewed by Giacomo Palombi, Prof. Nasti relays his passion for teaching and Robotics with great efficacy and simplicity. He considers Robotics an extraordinary tool for orientation and learning. And he has a very positive outlook on the creative contests that involve high school and university students, as well as researchers, on the development of robotic solutions. For the younger, it is a concrete opportunity to evaluate how to continue their studies, even whilst working.
