I build camera-based vision systems for structural health monitoring and visual measurement. I connect learned perception with camera geometry, calibration and physical reference data so results can be interpreted and checked.

I am a Research Fellow at CeSMA, University of Naples Federico II, where I develop non-contact pipelines for structural displacement and deformation. I completed my Ph.D. in Information Technology for Engineering at the University of Sannio in 2025.

My secondary work includes visual odometry, localization, underwater imaging and environmental sensing. Across these projects I combine image processing, geometric reasoning, machine learning and reference measurements.

I focus on calibration, synchronization, repeatability and failure analysis, and I explain how they affect each measurement.
