A Review on Human Comfort Factors, Measurements, and Improvements in Human–Robot Collaboration

Abstract: As the development of robotics technologies for collaborative robots (COBOTs), the applications of human–robot collaboration (HRC) have been growing in the past decade. Despite the tremendous efforts from both academia and industry, the overall usage and acceptance of COBOTs are still not so high as expected. One of the major affecting factors is the comfort of humans in HRC, which is usually less emphasized in COBOT development; however, it is critical to the user acceptance during HRC. Therefore, this paper … Show more

“…Finally, the impact of all three measures changing can be seen in Table 4. A significant difference can be seen in the theta, alpha and initial beta bands [40]. This significance is because when a human worker is under cognitive stress, the alpha and initial beta bands are the most affected.…”

“…In the latter case, the issue arises of integrating multiple quantitative indices related to different aspects of the movement, e.g. human-robot proximity [20], jerk-based measures [21]. Furthermore, since in most application scenarios it is preferable that planning is independent of experience, it is crucial to have an a priori comfort index in the pursuit of planning human-like trajectories.…”

“…A useful early review of the comfort concept was by Lueder (1983) and a more recent one applied to airline passengers was by Menegon et al (2017). A more recent application is to the comfort of humans acting with robots (Yan and Jia, 2022), although this study has almost no HFE references beyond thermal comfort.…”
