About
Dr. Alessandra Duz is a leading researcher in construction robotics and human-machine interaction, with a focus on transforming traditional construction equipment into intelligent, remotely operated systems. Her work centers on the control, interface design, and usability of heavy machinery, addressing the critical need to improve safety and efficiency in hazardous environments like building sites, mines, and forests. Her most cited paper, "From construction machines to remote construction robots: control, interfaces, and usability of the Cranebot" (2025, 3 citations), exemplifies her pioneering contributions by detailing the development of the Cranebot—a system that enables remote operation of cranes, reducing the need for on-site skilled operators in dangerous conditions. This work bridges robotics, ergonomics, and construction engineering, offering practical solutions for automating heavy equipment while maintaining human oversight. Dr. Duz’s research has significant implications for worker safety and productivity, positioning her as a key innovator in the emerging field of construction robotics. Her achievements highlight a commitment to making hazardous industries safer through thoughtful, user-centered robotic design.
