Luca Deriu has been a computer science lecturer at Istituto Secoli since 2025 and is a developer with over twenty years of experience in the fields of software engineering, computer graphics, and digital entertainment. Driven by a strong passion for 3D graphics and programming code, he embarked on a path that has led him over the years to design and develop proprietary 3D software currently used in professional environments.
In 2007, he founded PlaySys Software Engineering in Milan, an agency through which he carries out development, research, and training projects, collaborating with well-known companies and institutions. As a software developer, he focuses on creating interactive applications, production tools, and digital entertainment projects.
Alongside his professional activity, he has been teaching for nearly 20 years with a practical and interdisciplinary approach that combines programming logic, technical design, and creativity. He has designed and conducted courses and workshops, both in Italy and abroad, dedicated to 3D graphics, real-time rendering, and the development of interactive and digital experiences.
Author of technical manuals published by Hoepli, he has participated in conferences and seen his software and products distributed by major international entities such as Oculus/Meta, Pico Interactive, Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony Interactive Entertainment.
“For me, teaching is a window into the future. Every day I meet those who, tomorrow, will design the spaces we live in, the clothes we wear, the cars we drive, and the video games we play. “
