Extended Reality as a Mediation Layer for Situated Human Control in Human-Robot Teaming

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.25047v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Extended Reality (XR) is increasingly used in human-robot interaction to communicate robot intent, planned motion, reachability, and state. We argue that XR should also be understood as a mediation layer for situated human control in human-robot teaming. Situated human control denotes the human collaborator's ability to understand, shape, authorize, and interrupt robot action within the concrete physical, social, and temporal context in which that action unfolds. We ground this perspective in scenarios from robot-assisted bedside nursing, multi-arm supervisory control, and collaborative assembly under divided attention. Across these scenarios, robot autonomy must remain inspectable and adjustable as people move, goals change, sensing is inc
