About

Zahra NaminiMianji is a researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction and drone technology, with a focus on designing intuitive, future-ready interfaces for human-drone collaboration. Her work explores how virtual environments can accelerate the development of wearable controls for drone teams, making complex human-robot interactions more natural and accessible. Her most cited paper, "Developing Future Wearable Interfaces for Human-Drone Teams through a Virtual Drone Search Game" (2020, 20 citations), introduces a novel approach using a virtual reality search game to prototype and evaluate wearable interfaces—such as gesture-based or haptic controls—before physical deployment. This work not only advances the field of human-drone interaction but also demonstrates a cost-effective, iterative design methodology that bridges simulation and real-world application. By prioritizing user experience in drone operations, NaminiMianji contributes to safer, more efficient human-drone teams in domains like search-and-rescue, environmental monitoring, and entertainment. Her research is a valuable resource for students and engineers seeking to understand the ergonomic and cognitive challenges of future human-robot systems.
