Robotic capabilities framework: A boundary object and intermediate-level knowledge artifact for co-designing robotic processes
Alessandro Ianniello, Dave Murray-Rust, Sara Muscolo +6
As robots become more adaptable, responsive, and capable of interacting with humans, the design of effective human-robot collaboration becomes critical. Yet, this design process is…
Achieving Meaningful Collaboration: Worker-centered Design of a Physical Human-Robot Collaborative Blending Task
Nicky Mol, Luka Peternel, Alessandro Ianniello +9
The use of robots in industrial settings continues to grow, driven by the need to address complex societal challenges such as labor shortages, aging populations, and ever-increasin…
Can a mobile robot learn from a pedestrian model to prevent the sidewalk salsa?
Olger Siebinga, David Abbink
Pedestrians approaching each other on a sidewalk sometimes end up in an awkward interaction known as the "sidewalk salsa": they both (repeatedly) deviate to the same side to avoid…
Towards Human-Centric Evaluation of Interaction-Aware Automated Vehicle Controllers: A Framework and Case Study
Federico Scarì, Olger Siebinga, Arkady Zgonnikov
As automated vehicles (AVs) increasingly integrate into mixed-traffic environments, evaluating their interaction with human-driven vehicles (HDVs) becomes critical. In most researc…
A Model of the Sidewalk Salsa
Olger Siebinga
When two pedestrians approach each other on the sidewalk head-on, they sometimes engage in an awkward interaction, both deviating to the same side (repeatedly) to avoid a collision…
