Needs and Questions
• Robotics community needs appreciation of the human side: psychology, cognition, fatigue, acceptance, rejection, role of sophistication, learning, logic, spatial reasoning.
• Studies are needed of limits of human cognition skills when manipulating physical objects: spatial, logical, temporal.
• We need to define and start cognitive science research necessary for development of human-machine systems.
• Example. We want to put a robot in an elderly person's apartment: What responsibilities/skills are expected from the person, and which must be given to the robot?
