About
Jakub Kro is a rising researcher in the field of human factors and automated vehicle (AV) safety, with a focused interest in the critical transition periods between automated and manual driving. His work centers on understanding how drivers interact with Level 3 automated systems, particularly during take-over scenarios where the vehicle requests human intervention. Kro’s most-cited paper, "Correlation Between Reaction Time, Multi-Modal Feedback and Take-Over Requests for Level 3 Automated Vehicles" (2025, 3 citations), investigates how different feedback modalities—visual, auditory, or haptic—affect a driver’s reaction time when retaking control. This contribution is vital as the automotive industry moves toward higher automation, highlighting the need for intuitive human-machine interfaces that ensure safety during system failures. While his citation count is still growing, Kro’s work addresses a pressing real-world challenge: the paradigm shift from manual to fully autonomous driving. His research provides early empirical insights into designing effective take-over requests, making him a promising voice in the ongoing dialogue about the future of transportation and driver-vehicle cooperation.
