Situation Awareness in Autonomous Service Robots

Despite the increasing demand for service robots, considerable challenges remain to be solved before these robots can be ubiquitously employed in personal households. To this date, autonomously operating robots lack the flexibility to react appropriately in unforeseen situations. At the Human Factors Institute of the Universität der Bundeswehr München, a multi-disciplinary research group of psy...

Situation awareness and driving performance in a simulated navigation task.

The objective of this study was to identify task and vehicle factors that may affect driver situation awareness (SA) and its relationship to performance, particularly in strategic (navigation) tasks. An experiment was conducted to assess the effects of in-vehicle navigation aids and reliability on driver SA and performance in a simulated navigation task. A total of 20 participants drove a virtu...

Situations for Situation Awareness

This paper explores the relationship between Situation Awareness, Common Operating Pictures and Data Fusion to expose the need for Situation and Impact Assessments. A framework for Situation Assessments is then proposed and illustrated through reference to footage from the movie, “The Hunt for Red October”
