Study on controllability of human selective attention by a robot in a human/robot coexistence system

摘要

For a Human/Robot(H/R) coexistence system in which a robot is directly operated by a human, one way of assisting geometrical motion is constraining the endtip of the robot along a path pattern intended by the human. However, it is not clear how constraint strategy gives a good operation of the robot motion in the H/R coexistence system. In this paper, we consider this problem by taking human selective attention into account, and examine the result of the experiment conducted with some simple constraint conditions.
