three industrial tasks: working on
something with arms raised above
your head, holding a heavy object at
shoulder height, and lifting and palletizing objects.
The group had the following three
recommendations:
1) Focus on wearable robots for manufacturing. Initial buyers seemed
to fall into two
groups: medical
related and
The first RAS standard manufacturing

faster. These systems will be semiautonomous with a human driver in
the loop.

2) Develop standards for military exoskeletons, construction exoskeletons, and industrial exoskeletons.
There are no standards being developed currently for these types of
exoskeletons (Figure 1).
3) Develop standards for cybersecurity
for wearable systems. This is an
open area.
Map Data Representation
(Franceso Amigoni, Chair,
Politecnico di Milano)
The working group (WG) created
1873-2015 IEEE Standard for Robot
Map Data Representation for Navigation, which was approved by the IEEE
Standards Association in Fall 2015. The
standard provided a common representation and encoding for the map data
used for navigation by mobile robots,
which can be used when exchanging

map data between systems, even those
that are developed by different parties.
The standard focused on data models
and data formats for two-dimensional
(2-D) metric and topological maps.
Current activities of the WG include the dissemination of the main
ideas and reference implementations
of converters for the existing 2-D
standard and the start of the development of a new standard for representing three-dimensional maps, trying to
involve the main academic and industrial stakeholders. For further information, see https://standards.ieee.
org/develop/wg/MDR.html.

New Brunswick)

Figure 1. The ISO standards are detailed for the different categories. There are no standards for wearable robots used in construction
and industry. Moreover, military-style physical assistant robots are not covered under ISO 13482. (Figure courtesy of ISO at the
