Collaborating with Humanoid Robots in Space

Abstract

M%nmnoid robots sllch as Robona%t offer many opporftinities for advancing the llse of robots in complex enviromnents sllch as space, and for developn%nt of more effective interfaces for h%nmns to interact with then%. Once a s%fficiently high level of interaction between robots and h%nmns is achieved, the operation of and interaction with these robots will becon%e less of an additional b%rden for the h%nmns, and n%ore of a collaboration to achieve the ob\ectives of the task-at-hand. In this paper we describe om plans to endow Robona%t with cognitive capabilities which will sllppoIt collaboration between h%nmn astronallts and Robona%t. We bllild llpon ollr experience in naniral l%%%%1%%% %nderstanding, ge sflire recognition, spatial reasoning and cognitive n%odeling in achieving fl%ese goals.
