Dr.-Ing. Stephanie Gabriela Arévalo Arboleda presented the paper "Errors matter! The Influence of Error Frequency and Timing on Fluency and Workload in a Virtual Human-Cobot Collaboration Environment" at the 31st ACM Symposium on Virtual Reality Software and Technology (VRST) in Montreal, Canada, from November 11-14, 2025.
In the paper, we investigated how robot faulty behaviors affect human-robot workflow fluency and workload. Beyond that, we found that faulty behaviors do not affect the perceived contribution of the robot to a task and that the ordinal sequence of errors and their frequency affect the perception of the human-robot team and workload.
