About

Domenico Capriglione is a leading researcher in the field of metrology and reliability engineering, with a primary focus on the performance analysis of MEMS-based Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). His work addresses the critical challenge of ensuring accurate and reliable orientation estimation in sensors used across automotive, robotics, drone, and avionic applications. Capriglione’s major contributions include the development of rigorous test plans and testbeds for evaluating IMU performance under harsh conditions, such as vibration, temperature stress, and sine-on-random disturbances. His 2020 paper on vibration testing has garnered 31 citations, establishing a foundational methodology for the field. He has also pioneered stress testing protocols for orientation estimation algorithms (20 citations) and conducted systematic performance analyses of low-cost IMUs in terrestrial vehicles (17 citations). Notably, his 2022 work on temperature stress tests proposes innovative enhancements for low-cost systems, while his 2021 reliability analysis under temperature-based stress provides critical insights for avionic applications. With a growing body of work that bridges experimental design and practical sensor reliability, Capriglione is shaping best practices for deploying MEMS-based IMUs in demanding real-world environments, making his research essential for engineers and scientists developing next-generation autonomous and navigation systems.
