Human–Robot Interaction: Status and Challenges
Objective: The current status of human–robot interaction (HRI) is reviewed, and key current research challenges
for the human factors community are described.
Background: Robots have evolved from continuous human-controlled master–slave servomechanisms for handling nuclear waste to a broad range of robots incorporating artificial intelligence for many applications and under human supervisory control.
Methods: This mini-review describes HRI developments in four application areas and what are the challenges for human factors research.
Results: In addition to a plethora of research papers, evidence of success is manifest in live demonstrations
of robot capability under various forms of human control.
Conclusions: HRI is a rapidly evolving field. Specialized robots under human teleoperation have proven successful in hazardous environments and medical application, as have specialized telerobots under human supervisory control for space and repetitive industrial tasks. Research in areas of self-driving cars,intimate collaboration with humans in manipulation tasks, human control of humanoid robots for hazardous environments, and social interaction with robots
is at initial stages. The efficacy of humanoid generalpurpose robots has yet to be proven.
Applications: HRI is now applied in almost all robot tasks, including manufacturing, space, aviation,undersea, surgery, rehabilitation, agriculture, education,package fetch and delivery, policing, and military operations.
Keywords: robot, human interaction, supervisory control, research needs, teleoperator, telerobot
