Specialized robots under human teleoperation have proven successful in hazardous environments and medical application, as have specialized telerobots under human supervisory control for space and repetitive industrial tasks. Research in areas of self-driving cars, intimate collaboration with humans in manipulation tasks, human control of humanoid robots for hazardous environments, and social interaction with robots is at initial stages. The efficacy of humanoid general-purpose robots has yet to be proven.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Applications:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>HRI is now applied in almost all robot tasks, including manufacturing, space, aviation, undersea, surgery, rehabilitation, agriculture, education, package fetch and delivery, policing, and military operations.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/0018720816644364","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,21]],"date-time":"2016-04-21T01:44:50Z","timestamp":1461203090000},"page":"525-532","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":760,"title":["Human\u2013Robot Interaction"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"58","author":[{"given":"Thomas B.","family":"Sheridan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-0018720816644364","volume-title":"Who needs emotions?
