Designing and understanding the effects of gamified VR training on human-robot teaming

In cooperation with Schaeffler, we conducted a research project to investigate how gameful design can be used in virtual reality training programs for improving human-robot interaction. The project aimed at developing and exploring how different gameful and playful design interventions can support and optimize collaboration in human-robot teaming.

Project goals:

  • Structuring the knowledge of research on human-robot interaction, i.e., gamification of human-robot interaction
  • Developing design interventions to support the collaboration of humans and robots in virtual reality training
  • Investigation of the impact of gameful design on users’ perception and behavior
