About
Mafalda Ingenito is a rising researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction and automated vehicle design, with a focus on building trust between drivers and autonomous systems. Her work explores how interface design—specifically anthropomorphic and biophilic elements—can shape user perceptions of safety and reliability in automated driving. In her most-cited study, she conducted a within-subjects experiment with 30 participants, comparing the effectiveness of human-like and nature-inspired interfaces in a simulated driving scenario. This work, published in 2025, has already garnered attention for its novel comparative approach, contributing to the growing field of trustworthy automation. Ingenito’s research is notable for bridging cognitive psychology and automotive engineering, offering practical insights for the next generation of vehicle interfaces. As a young scholar, her early citation impact signals a promising trajectory, and her work is increasingly referenced by researchers seeking to humanize autonomous technology. Her contributions are particularly relevant for students and engineers aiming to design safer, more intuitive human-machine interactions.
