- Age : Variable since the user could be novice to the robotic system at any age but a substantial chunk would be from late-teens or early 20s.
- Education : Well-educated individuals with analytical skills and ability to comprehend mathematical charts.Physical Limitations : Our user audience is one that is capable of being mobile on the robotic arena to justify the need for a mobile interfaceMost probably this user has finished high school and have some college, but they might as well be still in the high school.
- Computer experience: Ability to operate a phone app interface, to operate the robot's software and initiate experiments via the computerWe assume they went through a tutorial of how to use a mobile device and/or the computer system or equivalent. No prior programming or networks experience is necessaryassumed.
- Motivation: Motivated learners interested in learning about robotic system, controls and performance.
- Domain Experience : No prior experience with LCM or communication tools is expected.Application Experience : Ability to use a phone app and read analytical charts.
- Work Environment and Social Context: This user with work under a supervisor who has significant experience in a robotics lab in terms of software and hardware. He/she would be working on a specific subsystem in the lab possibly in collaboration with other novice users on the same or different subsystem. The work environment varies significantly depending on the type of robotics e.g. SPHERES works with experimental satellites on a laboratory glass table or in an epoxy floored clean room.
