Özet

This study proposes a methodology to build an interface that will enable end users to interact with ROS-based service robots. The proposed methodology enables building an easy-to-use interface using the jigsaw metaphor. The methodology exploits ontologies to maximize the data sharing and integration among the users of the system. This methodology is verified on a cocktail robot as a case study and an end user-based survey is conducted to evaluate the built interface. The case study proved the feasibility of the methodology. User-based evaluation results provided positive feedback regarding the usability and preferability of the interface built with the proposed methodology.
