In highly dynamic domains like mobile robotics, it is essential to keep human in the control loop of the process and to maintain his/her situation awareness through adequate levels of automation. Our paper is focused on how to better match human and machine capabilities defining adaptive levels of automation. A method based on human-machine cooperation concepts which allow designing different possible...
Robots will face a huge deployment in a very near future for people's everyday lives. Main objective is to reduce or eliminate safety and health risks inherent to physically demanding duty or risky work. The present paper focuses on unsafe and hazardous tasks performed by firefighters and aims at proposing organizational and technical tools to balance risk with the involvement of cooperative robots...
The current study focuses on how the levels of automation and the number of simultaneous functions that complete the task demands affect the human operator performance. The research objective is to assess the effects of different levels of automation of vehicles (teleoperated VS. autonomous) and the complexity of the task on human operator performance. An experiment is realized using the simulation...
