Brief Bio
Dr. Juan Manuel Belda Lois is a senior researcher of Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia. He has been working in the development of assistive products since 1997. He has participated in several European Projects from 5th Framework Program to Horizon2020. Coordinating the project ABC (Advanced BNCI Communication) and participating in other projects related with the application of Physiological Computing Systems as asssistive products. He has been the lead researcher on Interface Design at IBV between 2014 and 2016, and nowadays is the leader of application of physiological signals of the center.

Brief Bio
Nicolás Palomares is an Industrial Engineer with a specialization in Mechanics, holding an MSc degree and extensive experience in human factors, particularly within the automotive and railway industries. Since 2007, he has served as a researcher at the Instituto de Biomecánica de Valencia, where he leads and participates in projects focused on transport, human-machine interaction and occupational health. His research interests cover a range of human factors including physical and cognitive ergonomics, usability, human error, vibrations, acoustics, and occupational health. He has played an active role in 33 publicly funded research projects and 28 private research contracts with industry partners, concentrating on innovations in the automotive and railway sectors. Mr. Palomares coordinated the H2020 SUaaVE project under the EU’s Horizon 2020 program, dedicated to advancing public acceptance of autonomous vehicles. His research portfolio includes 2 patents, 1 book, 1 book chapter, 1 peer-reviewed journal article, and over 25 conference papers. In addition, Mr. Palomares chaired two special sessions on autonomous vehicles at the CHIRA congress in 2020 and 2021.

SCOPE

While the deployment of connected automated vehicle (CAV) turns into reality, its acceptance has been called into question. Public acceptance is a multi-faceted construct, tightly related to emotional processes and trust in a new technology, beyond the accomplishment of functional performance.

In order to address this issue, one of the objectives of the project H2020 SUaaVE (Supporting acceptance of automated VEhicle), under grant agreement No 814999, is the conceptualisation of the fundamental architecture to humanise the behaviour of the vehicle. In particular, this concept will be aimed to understand passengers’ state based on their physiological response and, from this information, to manage corrective actions in vehicle for enhancing trip experience.

Topics of Interest
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
  • Connected Automated Vehicle
  • Human-Driven Design
  • Cognitive and Emotional Model
  • Acceptance
  • Situational Awareness
  • Artificial Intelligence
