Robotic Standard Development Life Cycle in Action.

The final authenticated version is available online at: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10846-019-01107-w”.Robotics is a fast-growing field which requires the efficient development of adapted standards. Hence, in this paper, we propose a development methodology to support the robot standardization effort led by international, technical, and professional associations such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). Our proposed standard development life cycle is a middle-out, iterative, collaborative, and incremental approach we have successfully applied to the development of the new IEEE Ontological Standard for Ethically Driven Robotics and Automation Systems (IEEE P7007 Standard).engKnowledge-based systemsRobotic modellingCompanion robotsDevelopment life cycleStandards and ethicsjournal article10.1007/s10846-019-01107-w
