About

Simone Borsci is a leading researcher at the intersection of human factors, cognitive ergonomics, and interactive systems, with a particular focus on how people interact with complex technologies. His work spans two critical domains: the evaluation of user experience (UX) in human-robot collaboration (HRC) and the development of urban digital twins. In a highly cited 2022 paper (187 citations), Borsci provided a foundational review of digital twin technology adapted for city ecosystems, addressing how these dynamic virtual models can be orchestrated to serve urban infrastructure and enhance efficiency. This work has become a key reference for researchers and city planners exploring smart city solutions. Complementing this, his systematic literature review on UX evaluation scales for HRC (2022) offers a structured framework for assessing collaborative interactions between humans and robots, a rapidly growing field in both industrial and assistive contexts. Borsci’s contributions are notable for bridging technical system design with rigorous human-centered evaluation, ensuring that emerging technologies are not only functional but also usable and acceptable. His research continues to shape how we design, deploy, and assess interactive systems in real-world, high-stakes environments.
