Abstract
The rapid development and proliferation of emerging computing technologies using artificial intelligence (AI) have the potential to transform existing aviation operations. Such technologies may be implemented by either a virtual or physical agent; the later called DENJIN. DENJIN supports Single Pilot Operation (SiPO) by retrofitting a physical humanoid robot possessing cognitive and physical capabilities of a typical human pilot, powered by AI, to existing aircraft. The Human-Robot Interaction literature indicates that the anthropomorphism of a robot influences trust in the robot, which is critical for successful human-automation interaction. Hence, this project aims to explore how human operators' trust varies across different levels of anthropomorphism.
