Assistant Professor

Department: Northumbria School of Design, Arts and Creative Industries

Matteo Conti

A specialist in industrial and transportation design practice, low carbon vehicles (LCVs), smart mobility and design led innovation. 

I am keen to further develop research projects and publications in the area of Autonomous vehicles (AVs), LCVs and smart mobility.

A specific research focus is to develop knowledge around smart mobility aesthetics which is applicable to vehicles, transport infrastructure, HMI, etc.
