About
Francesco Mugnai is a researcher specializing in wireless sensor networks and underwater robotics, with a focus on environmental monitoring and archaeological applications. His major contributions include the development of a flexible wireless sensor network (WSN) based on Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) technology for 3D ground instability monitoring, such as landslides and subsidence, as part of the European Life+ project Wi-GIM. This work, cited 25 times in its primary publication, demonstrates his impact in advancing low-cost, high-precision monitoring systems. Mugnai also contributed to underwater robotics, notably developing the Nemo remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) for inspecting the Costa Concordia wreck, a notable achievement in disaster response. Additionally, his involvement in the European ARROWS project highlights his work on autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) for archaeological campaigns, aiming to make underwater archaeology more accessible. With a portfolio spanning ground and underwater monitoring, Mugnai’s research bridges engineering and practical applications, offering innovative solutions for environmental and cultural heritage challenges.
