    Transcriber: gaith Takrity Reviewer: Michael Nystrom
  • 00:00:05
    Ever since the invention of the potter’s wheel
  • 00:00:08
    back in ancient Mesopotamia,
  • 00:00:11
    we humans have had machines in our lives.
  • 00:00:15
    The way we interact with these machines has varied over time, but mostly
  • 00:00:19
    we’ve used our bodies and our hands.
  • 00:00:24
    Technology helps us humans in our everyday lives,
  • 00:00:27
    and it even propels us to the Moon.
  • 00:00:32
    We have just entered the second era of human deep space exploration,
  • 00:00:38
    and I believe that we are on the brink of the next paradigm shift
  • 00:00:43
    in human-machine interaction.
  • 00:00:44
    And it might be used on the Moon first.
  • 00:00:47
    I’ll tell you why in a minute.
  • 00:00:50
    But first, what is interaction?
  • 00:00:54
    The Cambridge Dictionary defines interaction as:
  • 00:00:57
    “when two or more people or things communicate with or react to each other.”
  • 00:01:06
    We have human-object interaction, like when I sip on my glass of water.
  • 00:01:12
    Like when you have your first cup of coffee in the morning
  • 00:01:15
    or when you inadvertently push on a door that you were supposed to pull.
  • 00:01:22
    Then we have human-machine interaction.
  • 00:01:26
    And that occurs when we as humans want to interact with
  • 00:01:30
    or control any kind of machine.
  • 00:01:32
    And that's what I'm going to focus on here today.
  • 00:01:37
    Like when you want to pull a lever to control a crane,
  • 00:01:43
    if the interaction is designed well and you know what to do,
  • 00:01:48
    it usually goes right.
  • 00:01:49
    But this requires some sort of afterthought, training, or practice.
  • 00:01:56
    A hundred years ago,
  • 00:01:58
    machines were mostly mechanical in their nature,
  • 00:02:02
    and they were built in such a way that they require
  • 00:02:05
    a very specific set of input actions in order to work as intended.
  • 00:02:10
    It’s a simple action-reaction interaction.
  • 00:02:15
    Then, with the advent of the microprocessor in the early 1970s,
  • 00:02:21
    we were able to create programmable interfaces.
  • 00:02:25
    Suddenly, we could choose what button to push or lever to pull
  • 00:02:30
    and decide what would happen.
  • 00:02:34
    But with great power comes great responsibility.
  • 00:02:37
    And since then,
  • 00:02:38
    we have had to consciously think about how we create these interactions
  • 00:02:43
    in order to make them intuitive for us humans.
  • 00:02:49
    In the 1980s, the graphical user interface was introduced,
  • 00:02:54
    and the mouse and keyboard became the standard
  • 00:02:57
    on how to interact with machines.
  • 00:03:00
    It would take nearly 40 years until this interaction was dethroned
  • 00:03:05
    by the touchscreen as the most widely adopted one.
  • 00:03:09
    At this point in time, suddenly, anyone would be able to control a machine,
  • 00:03:14
    and you didn’t need to be a programmer to do it.
  • 00:03:18
    During this time, technology has been rapidly advancing.
  • 00:03:23
    We have, suddenly, computers in our pockets
  • 00:03:28
    with so much excess computational power
  • 00:03:32
    that it can do more than its core tasks
  • 00:03:36
    At any given point in time,
  • 00:03:37
    you have idle processing power,
  • 00:03:40
    and it’s a shame that we don’t do more with it
  • 00:03:43
    because we could use this processing power to enhance the interaction.
  • 00:03:49
    In fact, we have more processing power in our pockets
  • 00:03:53
    than was used for the Apollo missions.
  • 00:03:58
    So we’ve come a long way, but there’s a long way to go still.
  • 00:04:03
    Even though we have advanced from analog inputs like buttons and levers
  • 00:04:08
    into more digital spheres like the touch screens.
  • 00:04:14
    The paradigm is yet to come.
  • 00:04:17
    We’re now able to equip new machines with sensors,
  • 00:04:21
    microphones, and other means of sensing the environment.
  • 00:04:26
    And suddenly, we could use that as input methods
  • 00:04:30
    so our bodies could become the control system.
  • 00:04:39
    There is a digital divide
  • 00:04:44
    where some people proficient in technology know how to use
  • 00:04:50
    all of the gadgets that we now carry around,
  • 00:04:52
    where some might also be left behind.
  • 00:04:56
    But we can choose to design a different future,
  • 00:05:00
    a future that is human-centric,
  • 00:05:04
    where interaction with machines is easy,
  • 00:05:08
    effortless, and letting people in control.
  • 00:05:13
    We can create a future where humans experience happiness
  • 00:05:18
    with positive interactions with their environment.
  • 00:05:23
    But then we need to make human-machine interaction intuitive,
  • 00:05:28
    and that is what we have been doing at my company for the past six years.
  • 00:05:33
    We believe that there is a need for a universal translator
  • 00:05:38
    that can take into account the environment and the context
  • 00:05:42
    in which an action is performed,
  • 00:05:44
    and then analyze the human behavior,
  • 00:05:47
    try to extract the intention behind that action,
  • 00:05:52
    and translate that into machine command.
  • 00:05:55
    If we manage to do this properly,
  • 00:05:57
    we could revolutionize the way humans and machines interact.
  • 00:06:02
    It will become more visible
  • 00:06:04
    once technology for extended and augmented realities
  • 00:06:09
    become more mature and usable.
  • 00:06:11
    We see headsets, glasses, and other means of adding a digital layer
  • 00:06:16
    on top of our world or merge them all together.
  • 00:06:23
    My journey into this realm started with a smart glove.
  • 00:06:27
    It’s a sensor-based glove that could control drones.
  • 00:06:32
    Then it was discovered by Dr. Pascal Lee,
  • 00:06:36
    a planetary scientist and researcher at NASA.
  • 00:06:39
    Now, our friend who encouraged us to develop this technology
  • 00:06:44
    for the potential use of exploring the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
  • 00:06:49
    It quickly became
  • 00:06:53
    the “Astronaut Smart Glove.”
  • 00:06:59
    And we used it during a field test with a NASA Haughton-Mars project
  • 00:07:03
    where it was integrated
  • 00:07:05
    into an analog prototype of a next-generation spacesuit
  • 00:07:08
    replacing the astronauts’ need for its conventional controller.
  • 00:07:14
    We created an interaction system that intuitively let astronauts
  • 00:07:20
    interact with and control robotic assets in space.
  • 00:07:25
    And this could be used on Earth as well.
  • 00:07:29
    So why would this benefit us?
  • 00:07:34
    Because intuitive interaction with machines
  • 00:07:38
    would help create a more inclusive world,
  • 00:07:41
    a world where humans are engaged with
  • 00:07:46
    and empowered by the use of technology
  • 00:07:49
    rather than being estranged in a world
  • 00:07:52
    where it goes literally out of our control.
  • 00:07:58
    I envision a future, a future for all of us,
  • 00:08:02
    where we, as humans, can impact the way we interact with machines
  • 00:08:08
    and the choices we make today.
  • 00:08:10
    When designing systems for interacting with technology,
  • 00:08:15
    we need to think about the humans in the loop.
  • 00:08:19
    We need to make it human-centric.
  • 00:08:23
    We believe that human-machine interaction
  • 00:08:27
    should be universal and on human terms.
  • 00:08:32
    Thank you.
  • 00:08:33
