Enhancing Human-Robot Collaboration: Applying the Human Readiness Level Scale to Design Human-Centric Cobots
DescriptionThis case study demonstrates the application of the Human Readiness Level (HRL) framework in guiding the design of a Cobot-assisted drilling application, emphasizing its significance in fostering human-centric collaborative systems. The HRL, comprising nine levels that assess readiness for human use, provides a structured approach to integrating human factors into technology development. By employing a human-centric design approach and leveraging various data sources, the study ensures that the system not only meets technical standards but also aligns with human needs.
The findings highlight effective deployment of data sources to align with initial HRL levels and propose methodologies for advancing through subsequent stages. Notably, refinement of wireframe development and insights from user testing have led to critical design enhancements, particularly in Human Machine Interface (HMI), product design, and process optimization. Ultimately, the application of the HRL framework aids in identifying and rectifying usability issues, thereby improving user experience and system performance.
