WG 1 - SyC AAL/WG 1

IEC SRD 63416:2023 describes ethical considerations that are relevant when developing AAL systems and AAL services.
This document covers AAL-specific issues related to AI that supplement those ethical considerations already addressed in other AI documents. Examples include the WHO and OECD principles of AI and those of the High-Level Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence set up by the European Commission.
This document analyses whether these frameworks for the governance of AI are sufficient to meet the requirements of the AAL environment and in particular to meet the needs of AAL care recipients.
The objective of the ethical assessment is to create concrete and clear ethical guidelines that can be used as checklists in AAL service and system platform design, development and implementation.

IEC TS 63134:2020 identifies AAL scenarios and use cases based on real-world applications and requirements. The use cases provide a practical context for considerations of interoperability and standards based on user experience. Use cases provide a context for utilizing existing standards and identifying further standardization work. User requirements have also been identified.
This document also highlights potential areas for standardization in the AAL environment to ensure safety, security, privacy, ease of operation, performance and interoperability.
Lastly, this document is a contribution to the IEC use case management repository, the purpose of which is to collect, administer, maintain, and analyse use cases.
