Abstract
Can designers apply human factors design principles when designing tools for robots? Engineering students designed and then presented a tool for either a known (human), unknown (robot), or combination (team) user. Think aloud verbalizations showed a different approach to both designing and presenting ideas when the tool user was unknown.
