Topic:

Human-Autonomous-Machine Interactions

With the continued development of autonomy, autonomous machines are more and more expected to closely interact with humans. The two most representative examples are collaborative robots and automated vehicles which have been entering our daily lives and will be more and more in the future. The safe, efficient and comfortable interactions between humans and autonomous machines are actually challenging due to the heterogeneity of human elements and autonomy. This talk will introduce our research work in improving the interactions between humans and autonomous machines including both collaborative robots and automated vehicles. Methodologies and experiments will be introduced to illustrate our approaches.
