A study that is one of the largest of its kind is about to take close look at how humans and robots interact in everyday situations.
AUSTIN, Texas — It's not every day you come across a robot, but on one campus, that's about to get turned on its head.
It's also a place that's about to become a living and breathing experiment for things that are decidedly not living or breathing. A five-year study is about to get underway on the UT campus that will look at how humans react to robots that are out and about in the real world. The fleet of robots will be acting as delivery vehicles for COVID-related supplies around campus.
Those are all questions that have never been asked on this scale. The study will be the largest of its kind ever conducted involving human-robot interactions.
