This book examines recent advances in theories, models, and methods
relevant to automated and autonomous systems. The following
chapters provide perspectives on modern autonomous systems, such as
self-driving cars and unmanned aerial systems, directly from the
professionals working with and studying them. Current theories
surrounding topics such as vigilance, trust, and fatigue are
examined throughout as predictors of human performance in the
operation of automated systems. The challenges related to attention
and effort in autonomous vehicles described within give credence to
still-developing methods of training and selecting operators of
such unmanned systems. The book further recognizes the need for
human-centered approaches to design; a carefully crafted automated
technology that places the "human user" in the center of that
design process. Features Combines scientific theories with
real-world applications where automated technologies are
implemented Disseminates new understanding as to how automation is
now transitioning to autonomy Highlights the role of individual and
team characteristics in the piloting of unmanned systems and how
models of human performance are applied in system design Discusses
methods for selecting and training individuals to succeed in an age
of increasingly complex human-machine systems Provides explicit
benchmark comparisons of progress across the last few decades, and
identifies future prognostications and the constraints that impinge
upon these lines of progress Human Performance in Automated and
Autonomous Systems: Current Theory and Methods illustrates the
modern scientific theories and methods to be applied in real-world
automated technologies.
