Developing heuristics for assistive robotics

摘要

Based on the results of the head-to-head comparison of finding problems with Nielsen's versus our heuristics, we assert that our set of heuristics shows promise for evaluating assitive robotics applications. This paper presents a set of heuristics for assistive robotics. While heuristics have been previously developed to address human-robot interaction (e.g., [6]), there was no set of heuristics for the more specific area of assistive robotics prior to our effort. We describe the assistive robotic system we used as a validation testbed prior to explaining the heuristic development process, heuristics, and validation;.
