Ph.D. Thesis: Information Abstraction Visualization for Human-Robot Interaction

By Curtis M. Humphrey | Published: June 5, 2009

Future emergency incident responses, including Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE), will incorporate robots. The ability to interact with robots and understand the resulting volumes of information requires a system of human-robot interfaces employing directable visualizations that provide information immediacy, relevancy, and sharing appropriate for each human’s responsibilities.
This dissertation conducted two modified Cognitive Tasks [...]

Designing a System of User Interfaces for Controlling Robots for Emergency Incident Response

By Curtis M. Humphrey | Published: June 5, 2009

The emergency response incidents (e.g., Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, and Explosive (CBRNE) incidents or weapons of mass destruction) are evolving from a response involving humans (e.g. first responders, government officials, civilians) with equipment (e.g. protective suits, vehicles, sensors) to a response system combining humans and thinking machines (e.g. robots, information technology). The difference between equipment (e.g. fire engines, [...]

General Visualization Abstraction Algorithm for Geographic Map-Based Directable Interfaces

By Curtis M. Humphrey | Published: June 5, 2009

This project involved presented a novel approach to performing information abstraction (i.e., selection and grouping) and determining how each information item should be presented (i.e., its shape) in direct-able visualizations for the emergency incident response.
