About

Dengbo He is a leading researcher in human factors and intelligent transportation systems, with a primary focus on the interaction between users and autonomous vehicles. His work critically examines how riding experience and human-machine interfaces (HMI) shape trust, comfort, and acceptance of fully driverless vehicles. In a landmark on-road study, He demonstrated that prior riding experience and intuitive HMI design significantly enhance user trust and perceived comfort, providing essential insights for the development of user-centered autonomous vehicle technologies. Though early in its citation trajectory, this study has already garnered attention for its real-world experimental approach, bridging the gap between laboratory simulations and actual driving environments. He’s contributions are foundational for engineers and designers aiming to optimize the passenger experience in Level 5 autonomy, addressing key psychological and ergonomic barriers to adoption. His work is particularly valuable for students and researchers exploring the human side of automation, offering a rigorous framework for evaluating trust dynamics in emerging mobility systems.
