Abstract

AbsrracCIn this paper we report on the analysis of critical incidents during an urban search and rescue robot competition where critical incidents are defined as a situation where the robot could potentially cause damage to itself, the victim, or the environment We look at the features present in the bumanrobot interface that contributed to success in different taska needed in urban search and rescue and present guidelines for human-robot interaction design.
