A Framework for Dynamic Situational Awareness in Human–Robot Teams
In human–robot teams, human situational awareness is the operator’s conscious knowledge of the team’s states, actions, plans and their environment. Appropriate human situational awareness is critical to successful human–robot collaboration. In human–robot teaming, it is often assumed that the best and required level of situational awareness is knowing everything at all times. This view is problematic, because what a human needs to know for optima…
Generic Vs. Personalised Robot Feedback in Health-Related Recommendation
Social robots for healthcare application aimed at inspiring positive behavioural changes often operate on scripted behaviours, disregarding user context or inputs. This study expands existing research by examining how a person’s health risk (low vs. high) and types of robot feedback (generalised vs. personalised) impact users’ intention to follow robot’s recommendation in the context of fostering awareness of sun-protective behaviours to mitigate…
Contingent autonomy
In this article, we develop a framework for robotic autonomy as contingent. We do so with an account of a series of online research workshops that asked people to design and test robot behaviours for a public space scenario of their choice, as a means to surface and discuss their understandings of robots. We show how, as people manipulated robots in a simulator, they came to understand the capacities and limits of robots in distinctive ways. Thin…
What’s Best for Customers
A promising application of social robots highlighted by the ongoing labor shortage is to deploy them as service robots at organizational frontlines. As the face of the firms, service robots are expected to provide cognitive and affective supports in response to customer inquiries. However, one question remains unanswered: Would having a robot with a high level of affective support be helpful when such a robot cannot provide a satisfactory level o…
The robotic production of spatiality
Robots are an increasing presence in our public spaces. Accordingly, in this paper, we make an argument for the importance of understanding how they produce spatiality by developing three robotic logics: predictability, partitioning, and connection. We show how the robotic bias towards orderly categories exists alongside processual accounts of spatiality, and how the forms of anticipatory knowability that robots require play out in the contingent…
Imagining public space robots of the near-future
A Taxonomy of Social Errors in Human-Robot Interaction
Robotic applications have entered various aspects of our lives, such as health care and educational services. In such Human-robot Interaction (HRI), trust and mutual adaption are established and maintained through a positive social relationship between a user and a robot. This social relationship relies on the perceived competence of a robot on the social-emotional dimension. However, because of technical limitations and user heterogeneity, curre…
