and United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE),
a Service robot is…:
an actuated mechanism programmable in two or more axes with a
degree of autonomy, moving within its environment, to perform
intended tasks
a robot that performs useful tasks for humans or equipment excluding
industrial automation application
used for a noncommercial task, usually by laypersonal (personal
service robot)
used for a commercial task, usually operated by a properly trained
operator (professional service robot)
