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).

“…With respect to the special situation that personal care robots act in direct vicinity of the user, and that the autonomy of these robots is generally high, some clauses were added to the above documents, that are unique in machinery safety, such as instructions dealing with incorrect autonomous actions and decisions, hoping these will help the manufacturers when clearing their systems [1].…”

“…This is most critical in the medical domain, where all special safety requirements exist, and it is the manufacturer's responsibility to meet those, and assess the capabilities and functions of their system properly. A growing number or standards and guidelines deal with the topic, compositing a diverse, sometimes too complex landscape [1].…”

“…Effective compensation for these spatial inaccuracies are necessary towards the future application of robotic technology in the Operating Room (OR). This has become an explicit requirement toward CIS systems in the new ISO/IEC standards on the basic safety and essential performance of surgical robots [13].…”

“…Validation and assessment of image-guided robotic systems can be cumbersome, thus significant effort has been invested into metrology and standards development by the research community. Deterministic spatial accuracy analysis of image registration and surgical robot systems was performed by many research groups [13,[25][26][27][28]. Stochastic analysis has mostly been avoided due to the fact that it is computationally demanding and can lead to extremely complex solutions.…”

The technological development of the last decades resulted in the rise of entirely new paradigms in healthcare. Computer-Integrated Surgery (CIS) is providing innovative, minimally invasive solutions to heal complex injuries and diseases. It integrates robotic devices to the treatment delivery phase. By now, well over 6 million successful operations have been accomplished with various systems. In certain critical surgical procedures, where spatial accuracy is a must, physicians extensively rely on the help of CIS, and particularly on intra-operative navigation system. For these, the ways of use, including setup, registration and application accuracy metrics are provided by the manufacturers. Depending on the setup, inherent system errors can accumulate, and lead to significant deviation in position measurements. It is crucial to improve the precision of integrated setups, and to determine the overall task execution error. The stochastic approach proposed here offers an easy and straightforward solution to map and scale the error propagation. Applying pre-operative and on-site simulations, the optimal positioning of the navigation system can be achieved. This results in faster task execution and reduction of the probability of surgical errors. Surgical tracking systems have broader applications in endoscopic surgeries, and the method described in the article can be directly applied to these procedures too. It was tested in silico and on a neurosurgical prototype robot system developed at the Johns Hopkins University. The proposed features together can greatly increase the safety and reliability of all procedures where camera systems are involved, and ease the surgeon's task and potentially reduce operating time.
