About

Enrico Costanza is a leading researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction, ubiquitous computing, and sustainable technology. His work focuses on designing intelligent systems that empower users, particularly through energy feedback and autonomous domestic robotics. Costanza’s major contributions include pioneering the use of physical motion cues in robotic systems to reduce cognitive and physical workload, as demonstrated in his 2016 study on autonomous home assistants, which has garnered 6 citations. He is best known for developing innovative interfaces that make energy consumption visible and actionable, helping households reduce waste through real-time feedback. His research on "sustainable interaction design" has shaped how we think about eco-feedback technology, earning him recognition in top venues like CHI and UbiComp. With over 1,500 citations across his body of work, Costanza’s influence extends to practical applications in smart homes and behavioral change. Notably, he has received best paper awards for his work on tangible interfaces and energy awareness, cementing his reputation as a thinker who bridges technical innovation with human-centered design. For students and researchers, Costanza’s work offers a compelling model of how computing can support both autonomy and sustainability in everyday life.
