3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses: • IEC Electropedia: available at http://www.electropedia.org/ • ISO Online browsing platform: available at http://www.iso.org/obp 3.1 household robot actuated mechanism with a degree of autonomy, operating within the household and similar environment, to perform intended tasks Note 1 to entry: Operating includes travel and/or robot body movement. 3.2 mobile household robot household robot able to travel under its own control 3.3 capability of homing function capability of a mobile household robot to return to the charge station(s) for charging or after completion of the work task or called by user 3.4 pose the combination of position and orientation 3.5 autonomous mode mode set by user where the robot travels horizontally with no user interaction 3.6 manual mode mode set by the user where the robot travels with intermittent or continuous user interaction
4 General conditions for testing
4.1 Conditions prior to testing The robot shall be completely assembled and fully operational in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. All necessary leveling operations, alignment procedures and functional tests shall be satisfactorily completed. Prior to conducting any series of tests, the age, condition, and history of the product shall be recorded. NOTE Condition information can include model number/name, software version, and accessories used, if available. 4.2 Operating and environmental conditions 4.2.1 General The performance characteristics determined by the related test methods in this International Standard are valid only under the environmental and normal operating conditions as stipulated by the manufacturer. 4.2.2 Operating conditions All tests shall be carried out under conditions in which the mobile household robot is operated in normal use; the normal operating conditions used in the tests shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Performance will be affected by the installed software. Therefore installed software shall not be modified or changed during a set of tests. 4.2.3 Atmospheric conditions Unless otherwise specified, the test procedures and measurements shall be carried out under the following atmospheric conditions (in accordance with ISO 554): Temperature: (20 ± 5) °C Air pressure: 86 kPa to 1 06 kPa Temperature and humidity conditions if provided shall be aligned with manufacturer’s instruction for good repeatability and reproducibility. Care should be taken to avoid changes during a test.4.2.4 Lighting conditions Unless otherwise specified, the test procedures and measurements shall be carried out under the following lighting conditions: Intensity: (200 ± 50) lux Colour temperature: 2 000 K to 6 000 K Measurement shall be made at the test surface. 4.3 Test equipment and materials Measurements on carpets shall be carried out on a level floor consisting of a smooth untreated laminated pine tree plate or equivalent panel, at least 1 5 mm thick and of a size appropriate for the test. Equipment and materials for measurements (devices, test carpets, test dust etc.) to be used in a test shall, prior to the test, be kept for at least 1 6 h at standard atmospheric conditions according to 4.2.3. 4.4 Number of samples All measurements of performance shall be carried out on the same sample(s) of the robot with its attachments, if any. Tests carried out to simulate stresses a robot may be exposed to during normal use, possibly causing impairment of the robot performance, may require additional samples of replaceable parts. Such tests shall be carried out at the end of a test programme. 4.5 Preparation of battery Any new battery shall need to go through at least one full charge and complete discharge cycle in the robot prior to conducting first test of the robot. Complete discharge in the robot shall be done by performing a normal operation following the manufacturer’s instructions. NOTE The complete discharge means low battery signal, if any, without any motion.
