Abstract: This study conducts basic research on developing space standards for integrating home service robots in residences, using a room in an housing complex from Urban Renaissance Agency as a model. The study compares these spaces with existing robot mobility standards to identify issues. The robot-friendly level of the room was evaluated using RFA standard. Results showed that most rooms fell into Level C, the lowest of three levels, in areas such as "fixture width" and "steps." Furthermore, when operating two types of home service robots, the study uncovered unique robot behavior issues in the housing that were not anticipated by RFA standard.
