"Where am i?" acquiring situation awareness using a remote robot platform
Abstract
Human-robot interaction with urban search and rescue (USAR) robots needs to provide operators with a means of maintaining situation awareness (SA), especially since the USAR operators usually cannot see the robots that they are directing. We used a technique from human-computer interaction known as usability testing, plus implicit and explicit SA measurement techniques, to investigate USAR operators' levels of SA and strategies for maintaining SA. We found that operators developed different SA strategies, spent an average of 30% of their time solely in SA activities, had less SA of the space behind the robot than in front or on the sides, did not use automatically-generated maps to gain SA, and had difficulty maintaining SA when in the autonomous mode.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
