SUMMARY:27. Cognitive Workload Evaluation of Onsite Workers Collaborating 
 With a Teleoperated Robot in Assembly Tasks Using Heart-Rate
DESCRIPTION:Poster\n\nSakshi Taori (Virginia Tech Polytechnic Institute an
 d State University) and Sunwook Kim and Sol Lim (Virginia Polytechnic Inst
 itute and State University)\n\nIncorporating collaborative robots in moder
 n industry has given rise to the synergistic collaboration between humans 
 and robots. Working along with a teleoperated robot enables completion of 
 tasks across geographical boundaries and has the potential to address the 
 skills gap in manufacturing by enhancing future distributed manufacturing 
 environments. In this study, we investigated cognitive demands of onsite w
 orkers in two different collaboration scenarios: (1) Human-Human (HH) and 
 (2) Teleoperator-Robot-Human (tRH), during wire assembly tasks with varyin
 g physical and cognitive workloads. Under an additional cognitive task con
 dition, the perceived effort (measured by NASA-TLX) for HH (57.8 ± 26.4) w
 as significantly higher than for tRH (31.6 ± 26.5). However, no significan
 t differences in heart rate were found between HH and tRH. These findings 
 suggest that tRH might not introduce additional cognitive demands compared
  to HH collaboration, despite the lack of in-person and/or less direct com
 munication.\n\nTrack: Aging, Augmented Cognition, Children's Issues, Commu
