Abstract
Unlike current existing industrial robots’ safety standards, the new ISO 13482 Safety Standard for Personal Care Robots will be the first robot safety standard made by ISO international organization for standardization which allows robots and humans to touch each other, share the same space and provide the services to human beings. The new ISO 13482 safety standard includes (1) Mobile Servant Robots; (2) Person Carrier Robots; (3) Physical Assistant Robots as the three main categories of safety requirements. Furthermore, the “Safety for Human-Robot Co-Existing” could also bring structural and influential impact for next generation robots’ safety certification、product liability、ethics and insurance in the future.
