Maker Faire Rome has always been one of my favorite shows. It brings makers, hobbyists and enthusiasts of all ages and genres together in one place. The ability to show the newest technology and the coolest STEM products is something that can’t be done to this caliber anywhere else. We at DigiKey are lucky to be a part of this great maker event.

VEDI (Vision Exploitation for Data Interpretation)
VEDI is an integrated system to enrich CH visitors experience, whilst providing CH managers with statistics on visitor’s behaviour, so to improve the site management.
To achieve these goals, VEDI includes a wearable assistant (a device like Microsoft HoloLens) implementing Computer Vision algorithms to understand where the visitor is and what he/she is focusing on. Such information is used to enrich visitor experience through additional contents (AR) on the observed artwork, the location, navigation aid and suggestions on what else may be of interest.
Meanwhile, a back-end system collects information on visitor’s behaviour to provide statistics and performance indexes to CH site's Manager.
