On June 12-14, 2012, the Board on Global Science and Technology
held an international, multidisciplinary workshop in Washington,
D.C., to explore the challenges and advances in intelligent
human-machine collaboration (IH-MC), particularly as it applies to
unstructured environments. This workshop convened researchers from
a range of science and engineering disciplines, including robotics,
human-robot and human-machine interaction, software agents and
multi-agentsystems, cognitive sciences, and human-machine teamwork.
Participants were drawn from research organizations in Australia,
China, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, the United
Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The first
day of the workshop participants worked to determine how advances
in IH-MC over the next two to three years could be applied solving
a variety of different real-world scenarios in dynamic unstructured
environments, ranging from managing a natural disaster to improving
small-lot agile manufacturing. On the second day of the workshop,
participants organized into small groups for a deeper exploration
of research topics that had arisen, discussion of common
challenges, hoped-for breakthroughs, and the national,
transnational, and global context in which this research occurs.
Day three of the workshop consisted of small groups focusing on
longer term research deliverables, as well as identifying
challenges and opportunities from different disciplinary and
cultural perspectives. In addition, ten participants gave
presentations on their research, ranging from human-robot
communication, to disaster response robots, to human-in-the-loop
control of robot systems. Intelligent Human-Machine Collaboration:
