Fluent human-human teaming is often characterized by tacit interaction without explicit communication. This is because explicit communication, such as language utterances and gestures, are inherently interruptive. On the other hand, tacit interaction requires team situation awareness (TSA) to facilitate, which often relies on explicit communication to maintain, creating a paradox. In this paper, we consider implicit and naturalistic team status projection for tacit human-robot interaction. Implicitness minimizes interruption while naturalness reduces cognitive demand, and they together improve responsiveness to robots. We introduce a novel process for such Team status Projection via virtual Shadows, or TPS. We compare our method with two baselines that use explicit projection for maintaining TSA. Results via human factors studies demonstrate that TPS provides a more fluent humanrobot interaction experience by significantly improving human responsiveness to robots in tacit teaming scenarios, which suggests better TSA. Participants acknowledged robots implementing TPS as more acceptable as a teammate and favorable. Simultaneously, we demonstrate that TPS is comparable to, and sometimes better than, the best-performing baseline in maintaining accurate TSA.

“…It is necessary to connect each widget (miniature application within an app) that will be used to control any robotic system [52] that works with ROS from the ROS-Mobile application. For that, the ROS publisher-subscriber communication has to be used [53]. In this case, the main idea is to communicate with two essential nodes in the CeCi robot, the same ones that allow for manual control and send the robot to different coordinates [54] as required.…”

This paper presents a validation methodology for a remote system with its objective focused on a social robot. The research process starts with the customization of an application for smartphones, achieving a simple method of connection and attachment to the robot. This customization allows remote operation of the robot’s movements and an additional level of autonomy for the displacements in previously known locations. One of several teleoperations methods is the direct teleoperations method, which is used in master–slave control mode via a wireless network. Next, the article focuses on proposing a validation methodology for social robot applications design. Under this approach, two tests are performed to validate the designed application. The first one seeks to find the response speed of the communication between the robot and the mobile device wherein 10 devices with different characteristics and capabilities are used. This test is critical since a delay outside the allowable range invalidates the use of the application. The second test measures the application’s usability through a user survey, which allows for determining the preferences that people may have when using this type of application. This second test is essential to consider the overall acceptability of the social robot.

Abstract-The Robot Operating System (ROS) is a collection of tools, libraries, and conventions that focus on simplifying the task of creating a complex and advanced robotics system. Its standard framework can be shared with another robotics system that has a similar platform and suitable for being introduced as an educational tool in robotics. However, the problems found out in the current robot platform available in the market are expensive and encapsulated. The development of an open source robot platform is encouraged. Therefore, this research is carried out to design and develop an ROS based obstacle avoidance system for existing differential-wheeled mobile robot. The ROS was installed under Ubuntu 14.04 on a Beaglebone Black embedded computer system. Then, the ROS was implemented together with the obstacle avoidance system to establish the communication between program nodes. The mobile robot was then designed and developed to examine the obstacle avoidance application. The debugging process was carried out to check the obstacle avoidance system application based on the communication between nodes. This process is important in examining the message publishing and subscribing from all nodes. The obstacle avoidance mobile robot has been successfully tested where the communication between nodes was running without any problem.
