Publications at RAAD 2023

Two publications within the EASIER project were accepted as part of the 32nd International Conference on Robotics in Alpe-Adria-Danube Region (RAAD 2023). One work investigates the explainability of a localization monitor for navigation and the other one presents the first results from the first study conducted in November 20222, focusing on the impact of user pre-experience while using a VR interface.

Conduction of the first user study

The first user study was conducted in November 2022 with 39 participants (mainly psychology and software engineering students) involved. The study focused on a navigation task and investigated the impact of different explanation designs and user takeover of robotics functions on different metrics such as trust and cognitive load. The processing of the data is ongoing.

Publication at RAAD 2022

A first publication within the EASIER project was accepted as part of the 31st International Conference on Robotics in Alpe-Adria-Danube Region (RAAD 2022). The work tackles the issues of explainability and interaction in the context of motion planning.
