Abstract
In the international standard ISO13482 for personal care robots, which will be issued shortly, a safety related control system of a personal care robot shall be developed based on either ISO13849-1 or IEC62061. In general, it is difficult to determine which standard should be applied. We have evaluated the safety related control system according to both ISO13849-1 and IEC62061, and compared the results of them. In this paper, we report a summary of them.
