Standard

Provides cloud computing requirements for Robotics as a Service, which addresses requirements from use cases. Robotics as a Service (RaaS) is a cloud service category aimed at supporting the development of robotics applications and services in a cloud computing environment. On the perspective of cloud computing service provisioning, this Recommendation defines the requirements for RaaS to identify functionalities such as augmented intelligence sharing, integrated robotic control, automated machine learning, data pre-processing, etc.

Robot Network Fabric and Cobots in the Collection and assessment of proposed use cases for 6G, explore their implications for 6G R&D activities, and enlighten the way forward. It is the second deliverable in the NGMN Alliance 6G Project and follows from its publication of '6G Drivers and Vision' in April 2021.

Report points to ASTM Committee F48 Exoskeletons and Exosuits; ISO TC 299 Robotics; and IEEE Wearable Robots

Provides an Overview on Projects and Programs on COLLABORATIVE ROBOTS

The purpose of the Robotics Domain Task Force is to foster the integration of robotics systems from modular components through the adoption of OMG standards.

The scope of this Technical Report is to provide test methods and metrics for validating separation distances of robot applications using Speed and Separation Monitoring (SSM) in accordance with ANSI/RIA R15.06 and RIA TR R15.606. This Technical Report also provides guidance on determining how speeds and positions of robot systems, workpieces, and obstacles should be measured, and under what conditions such measurements should be made.This document is informative in nature and is not a standard. The use of the word “shall” and “should” in a particular statement indicates the relative importance of specific criteria or features indicated in ANSI/RIA R15.06, RIA TR R15.606, and RIA R15.08.

This community group will discuss the applications of web browsers as the computer for controlling robots (robotics, in other words). And it will be also intended to feedback knowledge obtained from this discussion to standardization activity about Web of Things.What kinds of values are contained in using a Web browser not only in drawing graphical user interface but also in controlling and manipulating robots, and what kinds of difficulties and problems are there in that case? To search their answers may become the driving force of this activity.As an example, there may be the following questions in the discussion:Is a case applying a Web browser as a simple controller of the robots which does not have UI such as screens or the pointing devices still meaningful? For example, connectivity with web services and interlocking operation between robots (Swarm Robotics via web) may be one of its values.Is it possible to relate a graphical user interface of HTML to interactive and physical user interface of the robots? Is it meaningful? As an example, a relation between a physical push button and 'input' type="button" element in the HTML may deserve considering.Are cases using relatively low-level interface used in many robots such as PWM of the motor, digital or analog signal interfaces, I2C, SPI, UART and GPIOs by the application on the web browsers meaningful?Is real-time computing at the same level as RTOS feasible on the web browser-based general-purpose computing environments?An initial related activity is the Mozilla Factory Open Hardware Project.Furthermore, this group may publish specifications based on those knowledge such as webGPIO, webI2C API and so on.

This standard extends the IEEE 1873-2015™ Standard for Robot Map Data Representation from two-dimensional (2D) maps to three-dimensional (3D) maps.

ISO 18646-1:2016 describes methods for specifying and evaluating the locomotion performance of wheeled robots in indoor environments.

This American National Standard provides both requirements and guidance for the implementation of safety-related control functions (functional safety) as they relate to electrical, electronic, pneumatic, hydraulic, and mechanical components of control systems.

This standard specifies the safety requirements for the design, construction, set-up, operation and maintenance (including installation, dismantling and transport) of integrated manufacturing systems.

This document provides ergonomic design guidelines intended to improve quality, performance and safety by reducing fatigue and injury associated with manufacturing systems, including individual and integrated machines and auxiliary components. It is intended to be a resource that can be applied to:Design or major modification, installation and use of machines and their auxiliary components. Design of a manufacturing system supporting machines and auxiliary components. Improve safety, quality and productivity, and reduce errors associated with a manufacturing system.Integrating ergonomic concepts early in the design process should maximize the impact and cost effectiveness of ergonomic interventions during the design process. The goal of this document is to provide guidance on the practical application of ergonomic principles in order to avoid work-related injuries and musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), increase productivity, and improve product quality. This document is directed towards technicians, engineers, designers, and safety and health practitioners who deal with general ergonomic issues related to machines. It is not intended to replace in-depth analysis by qualified and experienced ergonomists.
