This book focuses on the importance of human factors in the development of safe and reliable
unmanned systems. It discusses current challenges such as how to improve the perceptual and
cognitive abilities of robots develop suitable synthetic vision systems cope with degraded
reliability in unmanned systems predict robotic behavior in case of a loss of communication
the vision for future soldier-robot teams human-agent teaming real-world implications for
human-robot interaction and approaches to standardize both the display and control of
technologies across unmanned systems. Based on the AHFE 2018 International Conference on Human
Factors in Robots and Unmanned Systems held on July 21-25 2018 in Orlando Florida USA
this book fosters new discussions and stimulates new advances in the development of more
reliable safer and highly functional devices for carrying out automated and concurrent tasks.
