ItemSafe, Active, and Online Robot Learning(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-08-24) Gombolay, MatthewIRIM hosts each semester a symposium to feature presentations from faculty and presentations of research that has been funded by our IRIM seed grant program in the last year. The symposium is a chance for faculty to meet new PhD students on campus, as well as a chance to get a better idea of what IRIM colleagues are up to these days. The goal of the symposium is to spark new ideas, new collaborations, and even new friends!

ItemThe Human in Human-Autonomy Interaction(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2021-08-25) Gombolay, MatthewNew advances in robotics and autonomy offer the promise to revitalize assembly manufacturing, assist in personalized at-home healthcare, and even scale the power of earth-bound scientists for robotic space exploration. Yet, in real-world applications, autonomy is often run in the O-F-F mode because researchers fail to understand the human in human-in-the-loop systems. In this talk, I will share exciting research we are conducting at the nexus of human factors engineering and cognitive robotics to inform the design of human-autonomy interaction. In my talk, I will focus on our recent work in 1) understanding the psychology behind human response to autonomy failures, 2) how personality traits affect a human’s ability to teach robots skills, and 3) how we can design robot behaviors and relationship-building mechanisms to establish rapport between human and machine. The goal of this research is to inform the design of autonomous teammates that users want to turn – and benefit from turning – to the O-N mode.
