SUMMARY:Using a Community-Engaged Approach to Develop a Safe and Effective
  Teleoperation Workstation in Construction
DESCRIPTION:Lecture\n\nYiyang Fang, Burcin Becerik-Gerber, Gale Lucas, Luc
 io Soibelman, Patrick Borges Rodrigues, Zihao Wang, and Shawn Roll (Univer
 sity of Southern California)\n\nTeleoperation can improve construction ind
 ustry safety by removing workers from on-site hazards and attracting young
  professionals and underrepresented populations (e.g., women and people wi
 th disabilities) to join the workforce. Despite these benefits, limited ef
 forts have been made to ensure effective and human-centered interface desi
 gn. This research project leverages a community-engaged approach to develo
 p, design, and evaluate a teleoperation workstation for demolition robots 
 in construction. We recruited a 6-member community advisory panel consisti
 ng of three key parties in construction—robot operators, trainers, and com
 pany owners—to engage in various research activities throughout the projec
 t. This presentation outlines this community engaged approach and qualitat
 ive data gathered through individual interviews and focus groups. In addit
 ion to illuminating work-related sensory components of demolition robot op
 eration, the interview data revealed novel themes such as communication an
 d teamwork, health and safety concerns, work task complexities, and implem
 entation challenges. These findings inform the design of a teleoperation w
 orkstation prototype.\n\nTrack: Usability and System Evaluation\n\nSession
