A Human-Robot Interface for Urban Search and Rescue
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the Swarthmore College entry in the 2003 Urban Search and Rescue [USR] Event at the 2003 American Association for Artificial Intelligence Robot Competition. The primary focus of Swarthmore’s entry was the development of a fast, responsive user interface for effectively tele-operating a robot with some autonomous capability. This interface was inspired by first-person video game interfaces, and enabled Swarthmore to place second in the 2003 USR competition.

Game-Based Design of Human-Robot Interfaces for Urban Search and Rescue
Robot Urban Search and Rescue is a new task in robotics that is challenging not only robot hardware, but also humanrobot interfaces. It is a real-world challenge in an unstructured environment that requires cooperation between a remote robot and a human operator. The study of humanrobot interfaces is still in its infancy, and most of the urban search & rescue systems field so far use an ad hoc ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Human-Robot Interaction for Urban Search and Rescue
This paper describes two robot systems designed for urban search and rescue (USAR). Usability tests were conducted to compare the two interfaces developed for humanrobot interaction (HRI) in this domain, one of which emphasized three-dimensional mapping while the other design emphasized the video feed. We found that participants desired a combination of the interface design approaches. Addition...
متن کاملVirtual Synergy: A Human-Robot Interface for Urban Search and Rescue
This paper describes the Virtual Synergy interface, which combines a three dimensional graphical interface with physical robots to allow for collaboration among multiple human researchers, simulated software agents and physical teams of multi-terrain robots for the task of Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) [8,9]. Using the interface to communicate and monitor the robots gives the human operators t...
متن کاملRSARSim: A Toolkit for Evaluating HRI in Robotic Search and Rescue Tasks
A well-designed human-robot interface (HRI) is important for the success of search and rescue operations in urban environments. Controlling multiple robotic agents increases the complexity of the human operator’s control task since the human operator’s attention has to be divided between several robots. Without a good user interface, adding more robots to the system will not necessarily increas...
متن کاملRescuing interfaces: A multi-year study of human-robot interaction at the AAAI Robot Rescue Competition
This paper presents results from three years of studying human-robot interaction in the context of the AAAI Robot Rescue Competition. We discuss our study methodology, the competitors’ systems and performance, and suggest ways to improve human-robot interaction in the urban search and rescue as well as other remote robot operations.
