Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents ).

Introduction

ISO 13482 is the first safety standard developed for the area of service robots. It allows close human-robot interaction, including human-robot contact. Although ISO 13482 follows well-established principles and practices from standards for industrial robots and machines in general, additional guidance can facilitate its rapid and successful adoption by manufacturers and other stakeholders.

This document clarifies which robots fall under the definition of personal care robots and what distinguishes personal care robots from robots in other areas, such as medical robots or industrial robots. This document also provides further guidance on the risk assessment and risk reduction process to be conducted for a personal care robot. It contains examples of risk assessments for different types of personal care robots that can serve as an example for the user of ISO 13482 for their own risk assessment.

1 Scope

This document provides guidance on the use of ISO 13482 and is intended to facilitate the design of personal care robots in conformity with ISO 13482. Additional guidance is provided for users with limited experience of risk assessment and risk reduction. This document provides clarification and guidance on new terms and safety requirements introduced to allow close human-robot interaction and human-robot contact in personal care robot applications, including mobile servant robots, physical assistant robots and person carrier robots. This document considers the application of ISO 13482 to all service robots and includes related examples.
