About

Azra Habibovic is a leading researcher at the intersection of human-robot interaction (HRI) and autonomous vehicle (AV) safety, with a focus on how humans and automated systems can communicate effectively. Her work centers on two key areas: developing remote support systems for AV operations and fostering transferable insights between HRI and autonomous vehicle interactions. In her 2022 paper "Remote Support for Automated Vehicle Operations" (5 citations), she explores critical frameworks for human oversight in self-driving technology. More notably, Habibovic co-organized the 2024 workshop "Symbiotic," which bridges established HRI principles—particularly from social and assistive robotics—with the emerging field of AV interactions with other road users (AV-ORU). This workshop examines bidirectional methodologies and design principles, advancing understanding of how humans and autonomous systems can coexist. While her citation counts are still growing, her contributions are foundational in shaping how researchers approach human-centered automation. Habibovic's work is particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in the human factors of autonomous systems, offering a roadmap for integrating decades of HRI knowledge into the rapidly evolving AV landscape.
