Issues of social acceptability of autonomous system from the view point of robots

–requirements for decision making by interactive system –

Abstract

This paper describes issues for acceptability of autonomous system to society from the view point of standardization of industrial robots. When standards items about safety for human (operators, stakeholders) are supposed to apply to self-driving system, three requirements were extracted. They are 1) to be recognized existence of autonomous system to whole social system, 2) to be recognized the condition of activation in the system and 3) to be stopped and informed when users approach to autonomous system. As there are other standards related to interact about autonomous system, these requirements shall be fulfilled in the future.
