About

Assunta Pelliccio is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of mechatronics, robotics, and cultural heritage preservation, whose work has fundamentally advanced how we approach the documentation, inspection, and management of historical sites and civil infrastructure. Her most influential contribution, "The Heritage Management and Preservation Using the Mechatronic Survey" (2017, 37 citations), demonstrated how automated and mechatronic systems could overcome the persistent challenges of cost, time, and accessibility that plague traditional heritage conservation methods. Building on this foundation, her 2005 study on robotic applications for historical site inspection and restoration — developed through collaboration between DART and LARM Laboratories — established early groundbreaking frameworks for deploying robotic systems in architecturally significant environments, earning 20 citations. Her research extends naturally into brownfield rehabilitation, where she has applied digital and mechatronic survey technologies to recover and document socioeconomic heritage embedded in post-industrial landscapes. Through her 2018 work on mechatronics in cultural heritage and civil infrastructure management, Pelliccio continues to shape a field where engineering precision meets historical stewardship, offering researchers and conservators transformative tools to safeguard humanity's built legacy for future generations.
