This paper presents a human study and system implementation for the supervisory control of multiple social robots for navigational tasks. We studied the acceptable range of speed for robots interacting with people through navigation, and we discovered that entertaining people by speaking during navigation can increase people's tolerance toward robots' slow locomotion speed. Based on these results...
Teleoperation of multiple robots by a single operator has been studied extensively for applications such as search and navigation; however, this concept has never been applied to the field of social, conversational robots. In this paper, we explore the unique challenges posed by the remote operation of multiple social robots, where an operator must perform auditory multitasking to assist multiple...
Teleoperation of multiple robots has been studied extensively for applications such as robot navigation; however, this concept has never been applied to the field of social robots. To explore the unique challenges posed by the remote operation of multiple social robots, we have implemented a system in which a single operator simultaneously controls up to four robots, all engaging in communication...
