In this paper, we describe the development processes adopted for effective human centred design in the context of developing a human robot interface. The human robot interactive setting represents a significant development challenge on two counts: interaction is to be with a swarm of autonomous robots, and; the robots are to assist the process of search and rescue as carried out by fire fighters committed into the-field of incident. The paper goes on to illustrate an approach to design evaluation motivated by user centred design objectives. The conclusion from studies illustrate that the complex nature of professional practice in the high risk settings has significant influences upon the fitness for purpose. Overall we are able to show that despite the complexity of effective user engagement in development we are able to apply user centred principles productively.
