Abstract

This experiment investigates the spatial memory and attention when human acts as supervisor of one or two groups of distributed robot teams in a large virtual environment (VE). The problem is similar to learning a new environment and interpreting its spatial structure, e.g., [Mou and McNamara 2002], but less is known when attention is divided or locomotion is involved. Our motivation arises in the context of humans and robots acting cooperatively together as a team. Such teaming is becoming increasingly important in many scenarios, such as disaster relief, and wilderness search and rescue [Humphrey and Adams 2009].

Decision-making authority, team efficiency and human worker satisfaction in mixed human---robot teams

In manufacturing, advanced robotic technology has opened up the possibility of integrating highly autonomous mobile robots into human teams. However, with this capability comes the issue of how to maximize both team efficiency and the desire of human ...
Improved human-robot team performance using chaski, a human-inspired plan execution system
HRI '11: Proceedings of the 6th international conference on Human-robot interaction

We describe the design and evaluation of Chaski, a robot plan execution system that uses insights from human-human teaming to make human-robot teaming more natural and fluid. Chaski is a task-level executive that enables a robot to collaboratively ...
