About

J. Narkiewicz’s research centers on the human factors and technical design of simulators, with a particular focus on mobile robotics and crisis-response systems. Their most-cited work, “Technical factors influencing simulator sickness” (2013, 5 citations), examines how hardware and software parameters—such as latency, field of view, and motion cues—affect user discomfort, a critical issue as simulators expand beyond aeronautics into fields like robotics and marine training. This contribution helps bridge the gap between engineering design and operator well-being. Narkiewicz also led the development of the “Innovative, reconfigurable simulator of mobile robots to support anti-crisis operations” (2011, 3 citations), part of the PROTEUS project. Unlike conventional simulators, this reconfigurable platform allows rapid adaptation to diverse emergency scenarios, enabling operators to train for hazardous environments without real-world risk. While citation counts are modest, the work’s practical impact is notable: it directly supports anti-crisis operations by providing flexible, low-cost training tools. Narkiewicz’s research is especially valuable for students and engineers working at the intersection of simulation fidelity, user experience, and applied robotics in safety-critical domains.
