Interface of Communication with Service Medical Robot Communication

The study tested the problem of developing the interface of communication between human and autonomous mobile service medical robots. The choice of multimodal interfaces was substantiated. Findings of the research show that the main input information for the robot, coming through the interface, can be divided into 3 categories: 1) command to perform actions; 2) enquiry; 3) unrecognized information. The incorporation of the interface into the intelligent robot control system at the present stage of robotics development is necessary only at the level of recognized commands, which should generate the motivation and the goal for the next robot’s actions. The output of the reference and help information as well as communication in terms of defining the input information can be performed in the interface on the "pre-intelligent" level of implementation.
