Towards Trusted Human-Centric Robot Autonomy - Stanford Seminar

Explore the challenges and advancements in creating trusted human-centric robot autonomy in this Stanford seminar presented by Karen Leung from the University of Washington. Delve into the complexities of developing robots that can safely and fluently interact with humans in various settings, from roads and households to search and rescue missions and space exploration. Learn about the concept of safety concepts and how data-driven approaches combined with control theoretic tools can more accurately capture human perceptions of safety in real-world scenarios. Discover how legible and proactive robot behavior can lead to prosocial interactions, challenging traditional notions of safety and fluency in human-robot interactions. Gain insights into the future of autonomous robotics and its potential impact on daily life through this 49-minute presentation, part of Stanford's Robotics and Autonomous Systems Seminar series.
