Such technologies can offer great opportunities for children with long-term illnesses to continue attending school. Consequently, telepresence robots are already used in some schools when children are absent for long periods. However, despite their positive impact, such robots also create challenges for the privacy of people involved in such a setting. Therefore, in this paper, we discuss the user needs of such robots in this specific and privacy-sensitive application field. We held three workshops with different user groups with and without experience with the robots. Among them were formerly and currently ill children, parents, teachers, head teachers, media educators, and supporting personnel. We discussed their experiences (if any), ideas, expectations, and concerns with a focus on privacy aspects to find out about the user needs of different user groups. Our results reveal various interrelationships and conflicts between the individual actors.

Autonomous behavior is usually realized by using AI models built with real-world data, which often reflect existing inequalities and prejudices in society. Even if designers do not intend it, there are risks that robots will be developed that discriminate against certain users, e. g. based on gender. In this work, we investigate the implications of a gender-biased robot that disadvantages women, which unfortunately is a bias in AI that is often reported. Our experiment shows that both men and women perceive the gender-biased robot to be unfair. However, our work indicates that women are more aware that a gender bias causes this unfairness. We also show that gender bias results in the robot being perceived differently. While the gender bias resulted in lower likability and intelligence ratings by women, men seem to lose trust in the robot if it behaves unfairly.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{NeumannBuettnerHernandezAcostaetal.2024, author = {Neumann, Paul and B{\"u}ttner, Sebastian Thomas and Hern{\´a}ndez Acosta, Luca and Reinhardt, Delphine and Prilla, Michael}, title = {"I Don't Want Parents to Watch My Lessons" - Privacy Trade-offs in the Use of Telepresence Robots in Schools for Children with Long-term Illnesses}, series = {MuC '24: Proceedings of Mensch und Computer 2024, Karlsruhe Germany September 1-4, 2024}, booktitle = {MuC '24: Proceedings of Mensch und Computer 2024, Karlsruhe Germany September 1-4, 2024}, publisher = {ACM Digital Library}, isbn = {979-8-4007-0998-2}, doi = {10.1145/3670653.3677509}, pages = {448 -- 454}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Abstract Telepresence robots offer great opportunities for children with long-term illnesses to continue attending school.

However, they are often time-consuming to create and difficult to access during work. This paper introduces an approach that simplifies the creation of video tutorials in the workplace and promotes their use during work. By utilizing smart glasses, practitioners can record video tutorials during their daily work processes and utilize them for knowledge transfer to other employees without much additional effort. This offers the advantage of directly and easily sharing expertise in the workplace without being constrained by time or location. Given the intended simplicity of this approach, the question arises whether it creates video tutorials that help people in their learning. The paper presents a study that compares the effectiveness of knowledge transfer using these video tutorials against traditional personal training methods in the workplace. With 18 participants from the nursing and production sectors, we observed the training and learning outcomes of using video tutorials on smart glasses over multiple sessions, comparing them with personal training, which is considered the standard for practical onboarding. The study results indicate that learning with video tutorials does not significantly differ in terms of learning outcomes from traditional personal training methods. Overall, this study highlights the potential of video tutorials with smart glasses for knowledge transfer in workplaces, while also identifying challenges and opportunities for optimizing onboarding processes for employees.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BuettnerAlhajiKatariyaetal.2024, author = {B{\"u}ttner, Sebastian Thomas and Alhaji, Basel and Katariya, Kaushikbhai and Prilla, Michael}, title = {Interaction of Robot Speed and Distance in Human-Robot Collaboration: Impact on Human Trust, Safety, and Comfort}, series = {2024 33rd IEEE International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (ROMAN), 26-30 August 2024, Pasadena, CA, USA}, booktitle = {2024 33rd IEEE International Conference on Robot and Human Interactive Communication (ROMAN), 26-30 August 2024, Pasadena, CA, USA}, publisher = {IEEE}, isbn = {979-8-3503-7502-2}, issn = {1944-9437}, doi = {10.1109/RO-MAN60168.2024.10731236}, pages = {264 -- 271}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Abstract Robots are gradually being freed from their safety fences due to the advances in safety features integrated with most new robots. These robots enable a new form of human-robot interaction in which contact is possible.

Literature indicates that these factors influence whether humans perceive trust, safety, and comfort, which are essential components in the acceptance of robots by their end users. However, although speed and distance were intensively investigated in isolation, little is known about their combined effect. To this end, we conducted an experiment investigating the impact of the industrial robot arm's approaching speed and stopping distance on the users' trust, safety, and comfort while they were performing a collaborative task. Our results provide interesting insights into the implications of speed and trust.

Despite these advantageous properties, the machining of these composites presents formidable challenges due to their extremely high hardness. Grinding with diamond tools is commonly employed among the limited viable machining methods. However, the efficiency of this process is hindered by high grinding forces, elevated temperatures, and significantly high tool wear. Additionally, the surface integrity, form, and dimensional accuracy of the workpiece are compromised by the effects of tool wear and high cutting forces. To address these technological constraints in the grinding of SiC-bonded diamond materials, a laser-assisted grinding process has been developed. Ultra-short pulsed laser radiations were effectively utilized to induce material ablation with controlled structural damages, enhancing the productivity and efficiency of the grinding process through reduced grinding forces, temperatures, and tool wear. Furthermore, this study investigated the influence of grinding tools' specifications, design variations, and parameters on key aspects such as grinding forces, surface quality, and tool wear. Substantial reductions of up to 70\% in tangential grinding forces, 83\% in normal grinding forces, and a modest improvement in surface roughness achieved. The surface integrity analysis revealed a damage-free ground surface when utilizing laser assistance. Furthermore, there was a substantial enhancement in the grinding ratio (G-ratio), achieving an increase of up to 247\%, concurrently with a noteworthy improvement in the actual removal depth, reaching up to 99\%, when compared to conventional grinding processes.

However, the recent biochemical and genetic characterization of DSB repair pathways reveals that only homologous recombination (HR) can function in an error-free manner and that the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathways canonical NHEJ (c-NHEJ), alternative end joining (alt-EJ), and single-strand annealing (SSA) are error-prone, and potentially leave behind genomic scars and altered genomes. The strong cell cycle restriction of HR to S/ G2 phases and the unparalleled efficiency of c-NHEJ throughout the cell cycle, raise the intriguing question as to how far a surviving cell reaches after repairing the genome back to its pre-irradiation state. Indeed, there is evidence that the genomes of cells surviving radiation treatment harbor extensive genomic alterations. To directly investigate this possibility, we adopted next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies and tested a normal human fibroblast cell line, 82-6 hTert, after exposure up to 6 Gy. Cells were irradiated and surviving colonies expanded and the cells frozen. Sequencing analysis using the Illumina sequencing platform and comparison with the unirradiated genome detected frequent genomic alterations in the six investigated radiation survivor clones, including translocations and large deletions. Translocations detected by this analysis and predicted to generate visible cytogenetic alterations were frequently (three out of five) confirmed using mFISH cytogenetic analysis. PCR analysis of selected deletions also confirmed seven of the ten examined. We conclude that cells surviving radiation exposure tolerate and pass to their progeny a wide spectrum of genomic alterations. This recognition needs to be integrated into the interpretation of biological results at all endpoints, as well as in the formulation of mathematical models of radiation action. NGS analysis of irradiated genomes promises to enhance molecular cytogenetics by increasing the spectrum of detectable genomic alterations and advance our understanding of key molecular radiobiological effects and the logic underpinning DSB repair.

The results were surprisingly similar to those obtained with a commercial plasma treatment system. While the focus is on the experimental introduction to plasma physics and chemistry, it will be highlighted how a multidisciplinary approach enables the study and discussion of important concepts ranging from surface energies and contact angles to environmental or microbiological control.}, language = {en} } @article{NollLevenLimbergetal.2024, author = {Noll, Jessica and Leven, Felix and Limberg, Johannes and Weidmann, Christoph and Ostermann, Rainer}, title = {Electrospinning as a Fascinating Platform for Teaching Applied Polymer Science with Safe and Sustainable Experiments}, series = {Journal of Chemical Education}, volume = {2024}, journal = {Journal of Chemical Education}, number = {Volume 101, Issue 9}, publisher = {ACS Publications}, doi = {10.1021/acs.jchemed.4c00504}, pages = {3936 -- 3943}, year = {2024}, abstract = {Abstract Electrospinning has been widely used as a versatile technique to generate nanofibers of various materials. It is also helpful in teaching topics ranging from macromolecular chemistry to physics, safety, and sustainability at various levels of difficulty and student involvement. Simple and safe hands-on experiments/manual assays can be realized for less than 30 euros to demonstrate polymer viscosity and nanofiber alignment and solubility. Students can further study (super)hydrophobicity and even upcycle packaging waste into useful filter materials but also improve the electrospinning setup from a manual assay to an inexpensive Arduino-based 3D printed research platform. Alternatively, the latter can be used for teacher demonstrations of more challenging experiments that can also be easily done using a commercial syringe-pump.}, language = {en} }
