Survey on ISO standards for industrial and service robots

In this paper, the current international ISO activities on robots are introduced; ISO TC 184/SC 2, which has been active in developing standards for industrial robots and has widened its scope recently to include service robots as well as industrial robots. The aim of this paper is to introduce the existing standards and the new standards to be developed in SC 2, so that anyone who has interest in these emerging robotic areas could have information on the progress and the future planned developments.
