Robotics and autonomous systems

IEC 80601-2-78 ED2 Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-78: Particular requirements for basic safety and essential performance of medical robots for rehabilitation, assessment, compensation or alleviation. 

In the medium term, IEC 80601‑2‑78 Ed.2 will serve as the basis for a corresponding European standard that can be harmonised under the MDR. This will support European SMEs by providing a recognised and authoritative framework for demonstrating conformity. As a result, companies can reduce the time and cost associated with regulatory approval, improve the quality and consistency of their technical documentation, and accelerate their access to the European market

This standard provides a listing of desirable traits of robotic systems under the umbrella of agility - a compound notion of reconfigurability and autonomy as opposed to the typical robotic use of rigid pre-programmed tasks. In particular, it describes a set of quantitative test methods and metrics for assessing the following ten aspects: hardware reconfigurability, software reconfigurability, communications, task representation, sensing, reasoning, perception, planning, tasking, and execution.

Presents a study of use cases and vertical scenarios for Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) intended to be used as base requirements for evolving DECT. Applications / Use Cases include Home and Building Automation, including Smart Living; Industry automation - Factories of the Future, Industry 4.0; Mobile robots

The document provides an overview of ETSI activities linked to StandardizationNeeds in the area of "Robotics and Autonomous Systems" (RAS), referred to as a “multidisciplinary scientific and technological domain for implementing complex systems with cognitive capabilities” (see the EU ICT Standardization Rolling Plan)

Gives perspectives on wireless network of data acquisition terminals, robotic type equipment or automated guided vehicles, and Robotic arms

Contains Gap analysis in the context of Smart Manufacturing with respect to Standards Gaps. Proposes some recommendations to overcome potential gaps. Particular attention will be paid on horizontal application layer standardization and to assure an interworking framework among different vertical industrial segments

Points to "Cyberphysical systems: the usage of robots and advanced T-capabilities (sensors, data analytics) in a production environment" as Related Standardization Initiatives of relevance to the area

VDE-AR-E 2842-61-6 specifies a general framework for the development of trustworthy solutions and trustworthy autonomous / cognitive systems, including the requirements for the subsequent phases of Product life cycle (e. g. production, marketing & sales, operation & maintenance, retirement & repair). It defines a reference lifecycle in analogy to the most important standards for functional safety (i. e. IEC 61508) as a unified approach to achieve and maintain the overall performance of the solution and the intended behavior and trustworthiness of the autonomous / cognitive system. In addition, this could lead to a basis for the qualification and conformity assessment of solutions based on autonomous / cognitive systems including elements of artificial intelligence. The
