Why human factors science is demonstrably necessary: historical and evolutionary foundations.

Ergonomics
We review the theoretical foundation for the need for human factors science. Over the past 2.8 million years, humans and tools have co-evolved. However, in the last century, technology is introduced at a rate that exceeds human evolution. The prolife...

Physical Human-Robot Collaboration: Robotic Systems, Learning Methods, Collaborative Strategies, Sensors, and Actuators.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
This article presents a state-of-the-art survey on the robotic systems, sensors, actuators, and collaborative strategies for physical human-robot collaboration (pHRC). This article starts with an overview of some robotic systems with cutting-edge tec...

Relationship Development with Humanoid Social Robots: Applying Interpersonal Theories to Human-Robot Interaction.

Cyberpsychology, behavior and social networking
(HSRs) are human-made technologies that can take physical or digital form, resemble people in form or behavior to some degree, and are designed to interact with people. A common assumption is that social robots can and should mimic humans, such that...

Beyond safety drivers: Applying air traffic control principles to support the deployment of driverless vehicles.

PloS one
By adopting and extending lessons from the air traffic control system, we argue that a nationwide remote monitoring system for driverless vehicles could increase safety dramatically, speed these vehicles' deployment, and provide employment. It is bec...

A New Design Scheme for Intelligent Upper Limb Rehabilitation Training Robot.

International journal of environmental research and public health
In view of the urgent need for intelligent rehabilitation equipment for some disabled people, an intelligent, upper limb rehabilitation training robot is designed by applying the theories of artificial intelligence, information, control, human-machin...

Human Factors Contributions to the Development of Standards for Displays of Unmanned Aircraft Systems in Support of Detect-and-Avoid.

Human factors
OBJECTIVE: The aim is to provide a high-level synthesis of human factors research that contributed to the development of detect-and-avoid display requirements for unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).

Haptic-Guided Teleoperation of a 7-DoF Collaborative Robot Arm With an Identical Twin Master.

IEEE transactions on haptics
In this article, we describe two techniques to enable haptic-guided teleoperation using 7-DoF cobot arms as master and slave devices. A shortcoming of using cobots as master-slave systems is the lack of force feedback at the master side. However, rec...

Compact Series Visco-Elastic Joint (SVEJ) for Smooth Torque Control.

IEEE transactions on haptics
The design and control of a new series-viscous-elastic joint are presented. The proposed joint consists of 3D printed parts compressing nonlinear elastic silicone springs. The use of silicone springs is the main novelty of the system; they exhibit in...

Caring About the Human Operator: Haptic Shared Control for Enhanced User Comfort in Robotic Telemanipulation.

IEEE transactions on haptics
Haptic shared control enables a human operator and an autonomous controller to share the control of a robotic system using haptic active constraints. It has been used in robotic teleoperation for different purposes, such as navigating along paths min...

Factors affecting trust in high-vulnerability human-robot interaction contexts: A structural equation modelling approach.

Applied ergonomics
The current research proposed and tested a structural equation model (SEM) that describes hypothesized relationships among factors affecting trust in human-robot interaction (HRI) such as trustworthiness, human-likeness, intelligence, perfect automat...
