- Profile
-
I hold a bachelor’s degree in product design from Institut Teknologi Bandung, Indonesia. I later pursued a master’s degree in Industrial Engineering at Universitas Indonesia, majoring in ergonomics and human factors. I learn to understand the interactions between humans and systems, focusing on improving safety, comfort, and efficiency in various environments. Before starting my PhD, I served as a lecturer in the Department of Industrial Engineering at Universitas Indonesia.

Project Title
Investigating Conspicuity in Bicycle Lighting Through Biomotion
Project outline:
My project focuses on investigating the relationship between bicycle lighting, cyclist’s pedaling motion and their conspicuity on the road, with the goal of enhancing cyclist safety. This research explores the concept of biomotion—the recognition of human movement patterns by others, particularly in low-visibility conditions. By studying how the motion of a cyclist can be highlighted through lighting systems, my research aims to develop bicycle lighting solutions that focus on these natural movement patterns to make cyclists more visible to drivers and other road users.
