Abstract:Robot interfaces often only use the visual channel. Inspired by Wickens' Multiple Resource Theory, we investigated if the addition of audio elements would reduce cognitive workload and improve performance. Specifically, we designed a search and threat-defusal task (primary) with a memory test task (secondary). Eleven participants -predominantly first responders -were recruited to control a robot to clear all threats in a combination of four conditions of primary and secondary tasks in visual and auditory chann… Show more
