Projects

• Smart Rogaining

  February 2018 - February 2019
  Commissioned by Luca Gelati
  WebApp for supporting Team Building
  Development of a webapp for supporting team building experiences. The app is used to guide the players inside the game and allows interacting with a set of interesting points positioned on the map.

• PortBot

  April 2018 - December 2018
  Commissioned by CIPI
  ChatBot for the port of Genova
  Development of a chatbot for supporting the call center of the port of Genova. The chatbot answers to generic and specific questions concerning the situation inside the port. The objective of this work is to have support off the clock, since the call center is not a 24h/24h service. The framework used for developing such kind of chatbot is called Dialogflow.

• Video and Auto Expertises

  January 2018 - January 2019
  Commissioned by Queirolo & ass.
  Progressive WebApp for supporting Video and Auto expertises
  Development of a progressive webapp for supporting video and auto expertise for an insurance adjuster agency in Genova. The app is divided in two parts: Video and Auto. The video part allows the insurance adjuster to communicate directly with the client through a video chat. During this communication, the app supports also the exchange of information and datas to support the negotiation. The auto part allows the client to insert the datas relating to the damage in order to speed up the negotiation.
