contents Maintaining situational awareness (SA) is critical in human-robot teams. Yet, under high workload and dynamic conditions, operators often experience SA gaps. Automated detection of SA gaps could provide timely assistance for operators. However, conventional SA measures either disrupt task flow or cannot capture real-time fluctuations, limiting their operational utility. To the best of our knowledge, no publicly available dataset currently supports the systematic evaluation of online human SA assessment in human-robot teaming. To advance the development of online SA assessment tools, we introduce HRI-SA, a multimodal dataset from 30 participants in a realistic search-and-rescue human-robot teaming context, incorporating eye movements, pupil diameter, biosignals, user interactions, and robot data. The experimental protocol included predefined events requiring timely operator assistance, with ground truth SA latency of two types (perceptual and comprehension) systematically obtained by measuring the time between assistance need onset and resolution. We illustrate the utility of this dataset by evaluating standard machine learning models for detecting perceptual SA latencies using generic eye-tracking features and contextual features. Results show that eye-tracking features alone effectively classified perceptual SA latency (recall=88.91%, F1=67.63%) using leave-one-group-out cross-validation, with performance improved through contextual data fusion (recall=91.51%, F1=80.38%). This paper contributes the first public dataset supporting the systematic evaluation of SA throughout a human-robot teaming mission, while also demonstrating the potential of generic eye-tracking features for continuous perceptual SA latency detection in remote human-robot teaming.
