Human Robot Team Design

摘要

Human-robot teams offer both benefits and new challenges. Human robot teams combine the advantages of automation such as high accuracy, speed, and repeat-ability with the flexibility, adaptability, and creative problem-solving commonly associated with humans. Several challenges, however, must first be addressed to effectively leverage such teams. One challenge is understanding effective human-robot team design (HRTD). HRTD is vital as the wrong team can lead to potentially negative outcomes. The theoretical model and methodology presented are the planned first steps towards the establishment of guidelines based on statistical models that can recommend an optimal human-robot team design based on a given set of criteria.
