Inhalt:
Future autonomous service robots are intended to operate in open and complex environments. This in turn implies complications ensuring safe operation. The tenor of few available investigations is the need for dynamically assessing operational risks. Furthermore, there is a new kind of hazards being implicated by the robot’s capability to manipulate the environment: Hazardous environmental object interactions. Therefore, the realization of the Dynamic Risk-Assessment approach with special scope on object-interaction risks is addressed in this paper. A server-based architecture is proposed facilitating a feasible integration into robotic systems and realization of software and hardware redundancy as well. Area of conference topics (keywords): Area 6 - Safety (service robots, safety, dynamic risk assessment, safety principle)
