How is human-robot interaction considered within the development of new\nrobotic systems by practitioners? This study sets out to inquire, whether the\ndevelopment teams of robotic products have been considering human factor\nmethods in their design and implementation process. We were specifically\ninterested in the non-verbal communication methods they were aiming to\nimplement, and how they have approached the design process for these. Although\nvaluable insights on tasks and communication needs during the different phases\nof robot operation could be gathered, the results of this study indicate, that\nthe perspective of the human user or bystander is very often neglected and that\nknowledge on methods for engineering human-robot interaction is missing. The\nstudy was conducted with eleven development teams consisting of robot\nmanufacturers and students within a robot building course representing overall\n68 individual participants.\n
