Design guidelines for improved human-robot interaction

This poster highlights one of our analysis frameworks for human-robot interaction (HRI) and a sample of our results. We developed a fine-grained definition of HRI awareness based on research from computer-supported cooperative work (CSCW). Results consist of initial design guidelines for HRI that we are incorporating in next-generation robots and interfaces under development at UMass Lowell.
