Illing, B. (author), Westhoven, M. (author), Gaspers, B. (author), Smets, N. (author), Bruggemann, B. (author), Mathew, T. (author)Despite advances regarding autonomous functionality for robots, teleoperation remains a means for performing delicate tasks in safety critical contexts like explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) and ambiguous environments. Immersive stereoscopic displays have been proposed and developed in this regard, but bring about their own specific problems, e...conference paper 2020

Burghouts, G. (author), Huizing, A. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author)In robotics, one of the main challenges is that the on-board Artificial Intelligence (AI) must deal with different or unexpected environments. Such AI agents may be incompetent there, while the underlying model itself may not be aware of this (e.g., deep learning models are often overly confident). This paper proposes two methods for the online...article 2020

Boelhouwer, A. (author), van den Beukel, A.P. (author), van der Voort, M.C. (author), Martens, M.H. (author)Partially automated car systems are expected to soon become available to the public. However, in order for any of the potential benefits of automated driving to arise, the driver and car need to establish effective, efficient and satisfactory interactions. Otherwise, the driver may rely too much on the automated car system, leading to dangerous...article 2019

van Diggelen, J. (author), Johnson, M. (author)This paper introduces the concept of team design patterns and proposes an intuitive graphical language for describing the design choices that influence how intelligent systems (e.g. artificial intelligence, robotics, etc.) collaborate with humans. We build on the notion of design patterns and characterize important dimensions within human-agent...conference paper 2019

(author)ECOMOS is a multinational effort within the framework of an EDA Project Arrangement. Its aim is to provide a generally accepted and harmonized European computer model for computing nominal Target Acquisition (TA) ranges of optronic imagers operating in the Visible or thermal Infrared (IR).

Thammasan, N. (author), Stuldreher, I. (author), Wismeijer, D. (author), Poel, M. (author), van Erp, J. (author), Brouwer, A.M. (author)Skin conductance or electrodermal activity (EDA) has been shown to be a reliable indicator of emotional arousal. With the current development to record EDA with wearable sensors attached to individuals who freely move around, detecting EDA artefacts is essential. Current practice of detecting EDA artefacts relies heavily on expert judgments....conference paper 2019

van den Bosch, K. (author), Schoonderwoerd, T.A.J. (author), Blankendaal, R.A.M. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author)The increasing use of ever-smarter AI-technology is changing the way individuals and teams learn and perform their tasks. In hybrid teams, people collaborate with artificially intelligent partners. To utilize the different strengths and weaknesses of human and artificial intelligence, a hybrid team should be designed upon the principles that...conference paper 2019

de Dieuleveult, A.L. (author), Perry, S.I.B. (author), Siemonsma, P.C. (author), Brouwer, A.M. (author), van Erp, J.B.F. (author)Previous research showed that a simple target interception task reveals differences between younger adults (YA) and older adults (OA) on a large screen under laboratory conditions. Participants intercept downward moving objects while a horizontally moving background creates an illusion of the object moving in the opposite direction of the...article 2019

Brouwer, A.M. (author), Stuldreher, I.V. (author), Thammasan, N. (author)Monitoring directed auditory attention in groups can be helpful in a range of contexts. Concurrent change in physiological variables across multiple listeners (physiological synchrony – PS) may be a suitable marker of attentional focus as caused by shared affective or cognitive processes. We here determine PS for EEG (electroencephalography),...conference paper 2019

van Diggelen, J. (author), van den Broek, J. (author), Schraagen, J.M.C. (author), van der Waa, J.S. (author)This paper proposes a human-centered approach to Dynamic Position-ing systems which combines multiple technologies in an intelligent operator sup-port system (IOSS). IOSS allows the operator to be roaming and do other tasks in quiet conditions. When conditions become more demanding, the IOSS calls the operator to return to his bridge position....conference paper 2018

Fu, W. (author), Landman, H.M. (author), van Paassen, M.M. (author), Mulder, M. (author)We discuss an extension of the basic principles underlying the human haptic just noticeable difference (JND) in perceiving a manipulator's mechanical properties from force feedback. Two cases are studied: 1) the JND in perceiving the stiffness of manipulators with various masses; 2) the JND in perceiving the damping of a combined mass-spring...article 2018

Kuiper, O.X. (author), Bos, J.E. (author), Diels, C. (author)Carsickness is associated with a mismatch between actual and anticipated sensory signals. Occupants of automated vehicles, especially when using a display, are at higher risk of becoming carsick than drivers of conventional vehicles.
