研究人对工业机器人运动的感知差异,发现多数偏好稳定,仅性别年龄影响快慢偏好。

The Influence of Demographic Variation on the Perception of Industrial Robot Movements

  • 通过930人在线实验,分析人口特征对机械臂运动评价的影响
  • 多数人偏爱侧向接近、大范围移动、平滑且中等速度的动作
  • 除性别与年龄外,其他人口特征对运动偏好影响较小,适合人机交互设计参考

个体差异对人机交互感知的影响已研究数十年,部分人口特征被证实会影响人们对机器人交互的感知。然而,目前尚不清楚哪些个体差异及其影响程度会作用于机器人运动的感知,尤其是工业机器人相关研究仍不足。现有研究多聚焦于人形或社交机器人,而工业机器人互动研究相对匮乏。本文综述了机器人运动与人口特征间的关系,发现现有成果可比性有限,原因在于缺乏标准化的机器人操作、变量不一致及实验设置差异。此外,多数研究样本量不足,难以得出普适结论。为克服上述局限,我们开展了基于网络的实验,包含930名参与者,考察人口特征对多关节机械臂运动行为评价的影响。结果表明,多数参与者偏好从侧面接近、大运动范围、常规旋转次数、平滑运动及非快非慢的速度。在个体差异方面,这些偏好大多不受人口特征影响,仅性别和年龄导致对快慢运动的轻微偏好差异。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The influence of individual differences on the perception and evaluation of interactions with robots has been researched for decades. Some human demographic characteristics have been shown to affect how individuals perceive interactions with robots. Still, it is to-date not clear whether, which and to what extent individual differences influence how we perceive robots, and even less is known about human factors and their effect on the perception of robot movements. In addition, most results on the relevance of individual differences investigate human-robot interactions with humanoid or social robots whereas interactions with industrial robots are underrepresented. We present a literature review on the relationship of robot movements and the influence of demographic variation. Our review reveals a limited comparability of existing findings due to a lack of standardized robot manipulations, various dependent variables used and differing experimental setups including different robot types. In addition, most studies have insufficient sample sizes to derive generalizable results. To overcome these shortcomings, we report the results from a Web-based experiment with 930 participants that studies the effect of demographic characteristics on the evaluation of movement behaviors of an articulated robot arm. Our findings demonstrate that most participants prefer an approach from the side, a large movement range, conventional numbers of rotations, smooth movements and neither fast nor slow movement speeds. Regarding individual differences, most of these preferences are robust to demographic variation, and only gender and age was found to cause slight preference differences between slow and fast movements.
