IEC 61508
A foundational functional safety standard developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission, applicable to electrical, electronic, and programmable electronic safety-related systems.
Timeline (last 90 days)
The embedded field has requirements for safety certification (such as ISO 26262 and IEC 61508), and the traceability of the origin of every line of code in the toolchain is often a prerequisite for compliance audits.
The safety of humanoid robots involves functional safety standards such as ISO 13849 and IEC 61508.
The core standards for functional safety include ISO 13849 (safety-related control systems for machinery) and IEC 61508 (electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems), and collaborative robots must also follow ISO/TS 15066 regarding force and pressure limits during human-robot coexistence.
ISO 13485 is the medical device design control standard, and IEC 61508 is the functional safety standard.
International standards IEC 61508 (functional safety) and ISO 13482 (safety of personal care robots) set explicit requirements for system failure probability and risk mitigation measures.
