Metrics for Human-Robot Team Design: A Teamwork Perspective on Evaluation of Human-Robot Teams

Metrics for human-robot teaming should extend to teams consisting of multiple human and robotic agents, working in complex, dynamic work domains. This proposes that comprehensively analyze evaluate multi-human, multi-robot teams, traditional HRI metrics performance, efficiency must be expanded upon incorporate teamwork. We develop five distinct capture both ecological cognitive aspects teamwork found important human-automation interaction, inspired by research the systems engineering (CSE) community. demonstrate application these a spacecraft maintenance case study comparing team architectures. The demonstrates interaction (HRI) not apparent when using only performance metrics. article concludes proposed are complementary existing included evaluation teams.
