Psychology Robots Systems Design Industrial Engineering sensor perception control human-machine interaction supervisory control human-robot interaction ecological perception affordances mediated perception Remote sensor platforms, operating as part of a human sensor system, allow practitioners to extend their reach into remote environments normally inaccessible to humans and to substantially change the scale at which they work. Despite the utility these sensor platforms provide to domain practitioners, their operation remains difficult, slow, and error prone. Previous work has claimed these problems stem from the fact that currently available sensor platforms are not designed to work with the human operator as part of a larger perceptual system. As a result, operators struggle to understand the physical layout of the remote environment, and the opportunities for action in that environment. These clams are well founded from perceptual psychology, but have not yet received empirical verification. Additionally, research performed on human sensor system perception has not yet addressed the effects of viewpoint motion on perceptual performance. Both gaps in the human sensor system perception literature have been addressed in the current work. The three experiments performed to address these gaps extended previous research examining operators’ ability to judge the reachability of target objects in a remote environment. The first two experiments found that the human sensor system was well modeled using approaches from perceptual psychology. These results support the claims made in previous work, that sensor platforms operate as part of a larger perceptual system. The third experiment in the current work found that viewpoint motions that iiprovides new perspectives onto a scene of interest significantly improved participants’ perceptual performance. These results provide the first empirical verification of Roesler (2005) and Morison (2010)’s Perspective Control model. Taken together the results from the current work have implications for the design and testing of future sensor platforms in order to overcome the challenges facing current generation platforms and improve their performance. 2017-12-12 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1500466996274077 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1500466996274077 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
