Intra-scenario operator mobility is claimed to be a strong advantage when acquiring situational awareness within a robot tele-operation.

Abstract
Intra-scenario operator mobility is claimed to be a strong advantage when acquiring situational awareness within a robot tele-operation. This factor should not be discounted when seeking to build more effective Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) systems. In this paper, on the basis of extensive experimentation comparing a desktop-based interface wrt. a PDA-based interface for remote control of mobile robots, we provide support (and also some confutation) of this claim. The experiments were performed in order to identify the most suitable operator interface for controlling a mobile robot depending on the task and mobility/visibility of the operator.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
