摘要

交通枢纽的无障碍对于提高残疾人的社会和经济地位是必不可少的。卡拉——一款智能、自主的个人助理，被提议作为一种经济实惠的解决方案，以实现交通枢纽的包容性。卡拉可以充当目的地的向导、信息亭和行李搬运工。它配备了绳导和数字盲文，为患有多种感官障碍的人服务。用户轻轻推一下，卡拉就会移动——这是一项增强交互的新功能。讨论了自主导航的系统结构和算法。最后，介绍了Carla在一些用例中的交互。

Carla - Making Transport Hubs Accessible

Accessibility in transport hubs is indispensable for the upliftment of the social and economic spheres of persons with disabilities. Carla - a smart, autonomous personal assistant is proposed as an affordable solution to impart inclusivity in transport hubs. Carla can serve as a guide to the destination, an information kiosk and a luggage carrier. It is equipped with a rope guide and digital braille to serve people suffering from multi-sensory impairment. Carla can move to a modest push from the user - a novel feature introduced to enhance interaction. The system architecture and algorithm for autonomous navigation are also discussed. Finally, the interaction of Carla in a number of use cases are presented.

期刊介绍： ACM Transactions on Human-Robot Interaction (THRI) is a prestigious Gold Open Access journal that aspires to lead the field of human-robot interaction as a top-tier, peer-reviewed, interdisciplinary publication. The journal prioritizes articles that significantly contribute to the current state of the art, enhance overall knowledge, have a broad appeal, and are accessible to a diverse audience. Submissions are expected to meet a high scholarly standard, and authors are encouraged to ensure their research is well-presented, advancing the understanding of human-robot interaction, adding cutting-edge or general insights to the field, or challenging current perspectives in this research domain. THRI warmly invites well-crafted paper submissions from a variety of disciplines, encompassing robotics, computer science, engineering, design, and the behavioral and social sciences. The scholarly articles published in THRI may cover a range of topics such as the nature of human interactions with robots and robotic technologies, methods to enhance or enable novel forms of interaction, and the societal or organizational impacts of these interactions. The editorial team is also keen on receiving proposals for special issues that focus on specific technical challenges or that apply human-robot interaction research to further areas like social computing, consumer behavior, health, and education.
