Bruno Zamborlin, PhD (born 1983 in Vicenza) is an Italian AI researcher and entrepreneur based in London, UK.
He is considered a pioneer in the field of human-computer interaction. [1] [2] [3] His work focuses on converting physical objects into touch-sensitive, interactive surfaces using vibration sensors and Artificial Intelligence.

In 2013 he founded Mogees Limited, a London based start-up whose products enable users to transform everyday objects into musical instruments and games using a vibration sensor and a mobile phone. In 2017 he founded HyperSurfaces, a London-Los Angeles based company whose technology converts physical surfaces of any material, shape and form into data-enabled, interactive surfaces using a vibration sensor and a coin-sized chipset.

As an artist, he produces art installations around the world and performs occasionally with UK-based electronic music duo Plaid (Warp records).

Early life & education

Zamborlin was born in Vicenza, Italy. After attending a degree in Mathematics between University of Padua (IT) and Liacs (Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science, NL), he enrolled in a master degree in Computer Science in University of Bologna (IT) which he has been awarded with summa cum laude.

In 2008 Zamborlin moved to Paris, where he lived for 3 years. During this time he has been working at the IRCAM (Institute for Research and Coordination Acoustic Musical) – Centre Pompidou as a member of the Sound Music Movement Interaction team. [4]

Under the supervision of Frederic Bevilacqua, he started experimenting with the use of Artificial Intelligence and human movements. He contributed to the creation of Gesture Follower, a software used to analyse body movements of performers and dancers through motion sensors in order to control sound and visual media in real-time. Different human gestures could trigger different media as well as slowing and speeding up their reproduction based on the way such gestures are performed. [5]

In 2011 Zamborlin relocated to London, where in 2013 he was granted a joint PhD between Goldsmiths, University of London and IRCAM - Centre Pompidou/Pierre and Marie Curie University, Paris 6 in AI with the title 'Designing for Appropriation of Digital Music Technology'. The PhD focuses on the concept of Interactive Machine Learning [6] applied to digital musical instruments and performing arts. The jury panel included Reactable's inventor Sergi Jorda.

Business career

Mogees

Zamborlin founded Mogees Limited in 2013 in London, with IRCAM amongst the early investors in the company.

Mogees is a product that enables users to transform physical objects into musical instruments and games using a vibration sensor and a series of apps for smartphones and desktop. [7] [8] [9] [10] [11]

After a successful crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter in 2014 [12] , Mogees reportedly sold a total of more than 100,000 units worldwide and has been used by artists such as Rodrigo y Gabriela [13], Jean Michel Jarre [14] and Plaid [15].

HyperSurfaces

In 2017 Zamborlin founded HyperSurfaces together with computational artist Parag K Mital [16]. HyperSurfaces is a technology that converts any surface made of any material, shape and size into data-enabled interactive objects, employing a vibration sensor and proprietary AI algorithms running on a coin-sized chipset [17]. The vibrations generated by people's interactions on the surface are converted into an electric signal by a piezoelectric sensor and analysed in realtime by the AI algorithms that run on the chipset. Anytime the AI recognises in the vibration signal one of the events that have been predefined by the user beforehand, a corresponding notification message is sent in realtime.

The technology can be applied to multiple industry sectors, ranging from button-less human-computer interaction applications for automotive and smart home to the Internet of Things [18] [19]

Because the AI algorithms employed by HyperSurfaces run locally on a chipset, without the need to access cloud-based services, they are considered to be part of the field of edge AI. Also, because the AI can be trained beforehand to recognise the events its users are interested in, HyperSurfaces algorithms belong to the field of supervised machine learning.
