ABSTRACT
Advances in artificial intelligence capabilities in autonomy-enabled systems and robotics have pushed research to address the unique nature of human-autonomy team collaboration. The goals of these advanced technologies are to enable rapid decision making, enhance situation awareness, promote shared understanding, and improve team dynamics. Simultaneously, use of these technologies is expected to reduce risk to those who collaborate with these systems. Yet, for appropriate human- autonomy teaming to take place, especially as we move beyond dyadic partnerships, proper calibration of team trust is needed to effectively coordinate interactions during high-risk operations. To meet this end, multimodal measures of team trust for this new dynamic of human-autonomy teams are needed. This paper provides an overview of the purpose, components, and functionality of the Human-Autonomy Teaming Trust Toolkit (HAT3), which is a multimodal measurement tool for real, and near-real time measures of trust. More specifically, HAT3 is a modular software toolkit capable of measuring and visualizing individual and team-level trust via subjective measures, multiple communication tools, and a forthcoming physiological module.
