Human–autonomy teaming

Examining how people and autonomous systems coordinate as a team.

The teamwork challenge

Teams using automation need to calibrate trust, communicate and coordinate across human and machine partners, and adapt when autonomy fails or requires intervention. These are questions of team performance as well as technology.

Task and role design

Defining how people and autonomous systems complement one another in the work to be done.

Trust calibration

Supporting appropriate use of automation without ignoring it or relying on it excessively.

Training and simulation

Preparing people to work with autonomous agents through task-relevant training and simulation.

Performance measurement

Developing metrics to assess effectiveness and adaptability in human–autonomy teams.

Potential settings

Spaceflight, defense and security, healthcare, industry, and aviation present distinct human–autonomy challenges. The setting and scope of each consulting engagement are established with the client.
