ABSTRACT

Robot operations are progressively becoming more important in a variety of areas, especially in

environments where humans are at risk. When possible, it is better to have a robot search a cave

in Afghanistan, patrol a building complex at night for security, or search through rubble piles for

victims of a disaster. In these tasks, maintaining good situation awareness (SA) is a critical factor

in successfully completing a remote robot operation.

In this work, we have studied a variety of robot systems designed to perform robot interaction

tasks. As a result of these studies, many human-robot interaction (HRI) guidelines for providing

better SA were produced. Using these guidelines, we set out to create our own telepresence

robot system that put many of these suggestions into action. The system was improved a

number of times as a direct result of several usability studies. We successfully created a system

that performed better and solved many of the problems that the previously studied systems had

shown. In the end, we were able to prove, strengthen, or disprove many of the original HRI

design principles that were created from the original studies.
