Policy & Standards
The Institute for Humane Robotics' Policy & Standards work shapes governance frameworks and technical standards, including IEEE P7027, for robots that interact with people.
Overview
Why policy & standards matters now.
The rules for household and care robots are being written now. We contribute evidence, drafting, and cross-cultural perspective so those rules protect people without freezing progress, and so the companies building responsibly are not disadvantaged.
- Who it’s for
- Standards bodies, regulators, legislators, and companies preparing for compliance.
- Standards informed by evidence and by practice in Japan and the US.
- Companies that know what is coming and are ready for it.
- Rules that protect what makes us human.
