  • Identification of strategies to mitigate human-automation disconnects.

    • Main Results:

    • Human-automation interactions introduce unique error types, often due to lack of transparency in machine operations.
    • Aerospace human factors research has developed guidelines for automated system design and use.
    • Several approaches are being explored to prevent 'disconnects' between human operators and automated systems.

    Conclusions:

    • Developing automated systems that support, rather than hinder, human users is essential.
    • Resolving human-automation disconnects will enhance productivity and enable further exploration of challenging environments.
    • Successful human-machine teaming is vital for future advancements in complex operational settings.
