Psycho-physiology

Psychophysiology investigates the dynamic relationship between psychological processes and physiological responses. This field focuses on objectively characterizing mental states – such as stress, attention, or emotional arousal – by means of non-invasive measurements obtained from various parts of the body. Utilizing biosignals such as heart rate, skin conductance, respiration, and brain activity, psychophysiological research provides valuable insights into human cognition, affect, and behavior in both experimental and applied contexts.

Human Factors

We develop scientifically rigorous and objective methods for evaluating ergonomic products, focusing particularly on quantifying pain, comfort, and overall well-being. These measurements are conducted under realistic conditions, either in real-life scenarios or within controlled living-lab environments. By employing advanced sensor technologies, validated scales, and physiological monitoring techniques, we ensure precise, reliable assessments to optimize product design for improved user comfort and health outcomes.

Driver State Detection

Driver state detection refers to systems designed to continuously assess and monitor a driver’s physiological and psychological condition within the vehicle environment. Accurate detection and monitoring of driver states are critical components for enhancing automotive safety, significantly reducing accident risks caused by fatigue, distraction, or cognitive overload. By utilizing advanced sensor technologies, machine learning methods, and physiological signal analysis, such systems actively contribute to safer driving conditions and overall road safety.

Digital Health

Digital health represents a multidisciplinary domain situated at the intersection of technology and healthcare. It integrates advanced information and communication technologies, encompassing hardware and software solutions, with health sciences and healthcare services. This integration facilitates improved diagnostics, optimized patient care, enhanced medical workflows, and empowers both practitioners and patients through innovative digital tools and systems.

Chrono-biological Lighting

Light is fundamental to all life on Earth. For humans, it plays a critical role in maintaining both physical and psychological health. Specifically, light profoundly influences our circadian rhythms, regulating the sleep-wake cycle, daily physiological routines, and overall well-being. Properly designed lighting environments can enhance alertness, optimize productivity, or create calming atmospheres that foster comfort and relaxation.

Robotics

Robotics is an interdisciplinary field that integrates computer science, engineering, and related disciplines to design, develop, and operate robotic systems. Its overarching aim is to create machines capable of assisting, augmenting, or substituting human activities across a broad range of contexts. From automating routine tasks to replicating complex human behaviors, robotic technologies are increasingly applied in domains such as healthcare, manufacturing, defense, and service industries – advancing both efficiency and human-robot collaboration.
