Abstract
Cyber human interaction is a broad term encompassing the range of interactions that humans can have with technology. While human interaction with fixed and mobile computers is well understood, the world is on the cusp of ubiquitous and sustained interactions between humans and robots. While robotic systems are intertwined with computing and computing technologies, the word robot here describes technologies that can physically affect and in turn be affected by their environments which includes humans. This chapter delves into issues of cyber human interaction from the perspective of humans interacting with a subset of robots known as assistive robots. Assistive robots are robots designed to assist individuals with mobility or capacity limitations in completing everyday activities, commonly called instrumental activities of daily living. These range from household chores, eating or…
