Presentation
This talk presents the preliminary findings from an ongoing PhD project at the Department of Informatics at the University of Oslo. The project aims to understand how latency impacts user experience and task performance in remote control of a robot set-up. Latency here refers to the time delay between an action or command and the robot’s response. This session focuses on the results of user experiments, offering insights into how people experience latency in human-robot interaction in terms of embodiment, agency and difficulty. Finally, we will touch upon future strategies to hide latency in cross-boarder teleoperation using neural signals and machine learning for motion prediction.
Speaker
Myrthe Tilleman is a PhD researcher in informatics at the University of Oslo. Her work explores human-robot interaction and multimodal teleoperation through neural interfaces and the use of machine learning as a tool for hiding latency. She has a master degree in Human Neuroscience from Turku University in Finland, where her thesis explored the integration of sensory feedback for individuals with a lower limb amputation.
Program
11:30 – Doors open and lunch is served
12:00 – "Impact of latency in robot control for remote interactions" by Myrthe Erica Jeanne Tilleman (PhD Candidate, Department of Informatics)
This event is open for all students, PhD candidates, postdocs, and everyone else who is interested in the topic. No registration needed.
About the seminar series
Once a month, dScience will invite you to join us for lunch and professional talks at the Science Library. In addition to these, we will serve lunch in our lounge in Kristine Bonnevies house every Thursday. Due to limited space (40 people), this will be first come, first served. See how to find us here.
Our lounge can also be booked by PhDs and Postdocs on a regular basis, whether it is for a meeting or just to hang out – we have fresh coffee all day long!
