The unprecedented growth of population in urban environments over the last decades makes the smartification of cities a timely topic.
The focus of this program will be on the design of human-technology interfaces, understanding the beliefs we always form and update regarding the surrounding artifacts, and the relationships we create with apps, bots, machines, and with other people. Pedestrian cognition, for example, is hugely affected by new modes of sensation, perception, behavioral intentions, and actual behaviors.
Where better to study the ‘smartification’ of cities than in one of the smartest and greenest cities of the Start-up Nation?
