Abstract
In this paper, we provide a essence of the risk management sheet that was used to obtain the world-first certificate of ISO/DIS 13482:2011 for “Robot Suit HAL® for Well-being,” and discuss how it could be applicable to more common wearable walking assistant robots. We hope our experiences and knowledge will help overcoming the so-called “valley of death” towards commercialization of the personal care robots.
