The article explores the impact of learning and training on the performance of human-robot systems with variable autonomy. It presents the findings from an experiment inspired by a search and rescue scenario. The operators remotely controlled a mobile robot with either Human-Initiative (HI) or Mixed-Initiative (MI) control. The study found evidence of learning in terms of primary navigation task and secondary task performance. It also concluded that MI and HI performance in a pure navigation task is equal.
