Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies how humans interact with automated and robotic systems in construction settings, focusing on worker safety, trust, mental workload, and situational awareness when working alongside drones, robots, and AI-based tools. Methods include physiological sensing (such as brain and stress monitoring), mixed reality experiments, and deep learning models to predict trust and risk. The work aims to help design safer, more effective collaboration between construction workers and automated technologies.
