“Nudges” as exhibited by robotic, intelligent or autonomous systems are defined as overt or hidden suggestions or manipulations designed to influence the behavior or emotions of a user. This standard establishes a delineation of typical nudges (currently in use or that could be created). It contains concepts, functions and benefits necessary to establish and ensure ethically driven methodologies for the design of the robotic, intelligent and autonomous systems that incorporate them.

The RAS Industrial Activities Board is growing rapidly to respond to the rapid growth in robotics commercialization and we have many committees and workgroups that you can participate in. If something in the Industry & Government area of RAS interests you, please apply to join.
