“…This process is referred to as Human-Robot Interaction Awareness. Formally, Drury et al [29] defines HRI awareness as the understanding that the human has of a robot's location, activities, status, and surroundings; the knowledge that the robot has of the human's commands or instructions that are necessary to direct its activities and the knowledge of the conditions and constraints under which the robot must operate. However, the lack of awareness significantly reduces the level of interaction between a human and a robot and thus the performance of the overall task required to be carried by both the human and the robot is greatly reduced [30].…”

Abstract-In general, the applications of robots have shifted rapidly from industrial uses to social uses. This provides robots with the ability to naturally interact with human beings and socially fit into the human environment. The deployment of social robots in the healthcare system is becoming extensive as a result of the shortage of healthcare professionals, rising costs of healthcare and the exponential growth in the number of vulnerable populations such as the sick, the aged and children with developmental disabilities. Consequently, social robots are used in healthcare for providing health education and entertainment for patients in the hospital and for providing aids for the sick and aged. They are also used for dispensing drugs and providing rehabilitation as well as emotional and aging care. Hence, social robots improve the efficiency and quality of healthcare services. The interaction between social robots and human beings is known as human-robot interaction. Human-robot interaction in healthcare is faced with numerous challenges such as the fear of displacement of caregivers by robots, safety, usefulness, acceptability as well as appropriateness. These challenges ultimately lead to a low rate of acceptance of the robotic technology. Consequently, this paper extensively appraises humanrobot interaction in healthcare, their applications and challenges. Design, ethical and usability issues such as privacy, trust, safety, users' attitude, culture, robot morphology as well as emotions and deception arising from the interaction between humans and robots in healthcare are also reviewed in this paper.

“…HRI studies have revealed that users of USAR human-robot systems spend too much time trying to gain situation awareness, which detracts from the task of finding victims [1,5,6]. Most of the dozen USAR interfaces we have studied do not convey essential information in an intuitive fashion.…”

“…In fact, most USAR robots that are sent into disaster zones are teleoperated. For this application, operators must have a good awareness of their surroundings, yet it is difficult to obtain situation awareness [1,2].…”

“…We have performed studies on more than a dozen USAR interfaces used in the American Association for Artificial Intelligence (AAAI) and RoboCup Robot Rescue competitions and have also done usability testing with domain experts at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (see, for example, [1], [2] and [3]). These studies allowed us to identify the successes and failures of different interfaces, and we have developed guidelines for the effective design of interfaces for human-robot interaction in a USAR application [4]:…”
