Hello! My name is Vitor Casadei. I am an Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Specialist with over 10 years of experience working at the forefront of technology and innovation. Currently, I am a Senior Data Science Manager at CESAR and a Postgraduate Professor of AI, Deep Learning, and Data Science at CESAR School.
My Journey and Purpose
I hold a Master’s degree from UFSCar, and my true passion is using technology as a driver for social inclusion. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of leading high-performance teams in developing solutions that impact people’s lives. I am very proud to have been part of the technical leadership for pioneering accessibility projects, such as the world’s first AI-based simultaneous sign language (Libras) translator (a partnership between Lenovo and CESAR) and an intelligent lipstick for people with motor and visual impairments (with Grupo Boticário). I strongly believe in the premise of “AI for All” and how computer vision and interface design can break down barriers.
What you will find in this space
I created this blog to share my thoughts, learnings, and daily experiences with technology. Here, I write about:
- Artificial Intelligence and Accessibility: Real-world use cases and how technology transforms lives.
- Applied Research and Management: Tips on agile methodologies in R&D, such as adapting Scrum for applied research (Scrum for Applied Research).
- Software Architecture and Data Science: Reflections on the field, best practices, and technical leadership.
- Personal Projects and Hands-on Work: I enjoy sharing my IoT and infrastructure projects — from applying AI and object detection to home security cameras (Frigate) to upgrading networks in rural areas, as well as my adventures in the 3D printing world.
