Direct communication between humans and autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) is a relatively under-explored area in human-robot interaction research, although many tasks (e.g., surveillance, inspection, and search-and-rescue) require close diver-robot collaboration. Suboptimal AUV positioning relative to its human collaborators can lead to poor quality interaction and lead to excessive cognitive ...
