Trust Affordances in Human Automation Teaming

Abstract

Background: As robots make the transition from tools to teammates, it is crucial that there ismutual understanding and well-calibrated trust between humans and machines. Withoutthis understanding, people can over-rely on automation (i.e., complacency), or under-relyon automation (i.e., resistance). Either outcome degrades the effectiveness of humanrobotteams.Current automated and robotic systems are not designed to afford trust. To humans,machines are complex, remote, and opaque. To robots, humans are merely issuers ofcommands or obstacles to be avoided.
