Objective Trade-offs between productivity, physical workload (PWL), and mental workload
(MWL) were studied when integrating collaborative robots (cobots) into existing manual …

Just as end-user programming has helped make computer programming accessible for a
variety of users and settings, end-user robot programming has helped empower end-users …

The introduction of collaborative robots (cobots) into the workplace has presented both
opportunities and chal-lenges for those seeking to utilize their functionality. Prior research …

Remote teleoperation is an important robot control method when they cannot operate fully
autonomously. Yet, teleoperation presents challenges to effective and full robot utilization …

End-user programming (EUP) tools must balance user control with the robot's ability to plan
and act autonomously. Many existing task-oriented EUP tools enforce a specific level of …

Industrial collaborative robots have become increasingly important in recent years due to
their ability to work safely and efficiently alongside humans. As a result, there is a growing …

We present situated live programming for human-robot collaboration, an approach that
enables users with limited programming experience to program collaborative applications …

In flexible manufacturing settings, automation is shaped by ever changing conditions (eg
