Robot Work Insurance Information Processing for Environment-Specific Risk
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing insurance methods for robot-related accidents fail to adequately account for the specific work contents and environment, leading to inappropriate insurance determinations.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus that acquires robot attribute and work environment information to determine insurance contents based on the robot's safety performance, work environment conditions, and potential collision risks, calculating probabilities and damages to determine appropriate insurance costs.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If insurance contents are determined based on general robot risk categories, then the insurance determination process is simple and quick, but the insurance contents cannot be suitably determined according to the specific work contents and work environment
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the insurance determination process into multiple independent evaluation dimensions: robot attribute information (type, size, speed), work environment information (space, obstacles, lighting), and work content information (task type, duration). Each dimension is evaluated separately and combined to produce the final insurance contents, allowing precise tailoring without overwhelming complexity in any single step
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements a dynamic insurance determination system that adapts to different work scenarios. The evaluation criteria and insurance contents are not fixed but dynamically adjusted based on the specific combination of robot attributes, environment conditions, and work contents. This allows the system to provide customized insurance solutions for each unique work situation
2Reliability
If a fixed insurance amount is applied to all robot work, then the insurance process is simple and fast, but it cannot account for varying risk levels in different work environments and tasks
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary evaluation of robot attributes, work environment, and work content before finalizing the insurance contents. By assessing these factors in advance through structured information gathering and risk calculation, the system determines appropriate insurance amounts beforehand, ensuring both reliability and efficiency without delays
3Adaptability or versatility
If detailed evaluation of work environment and robot attributes is performed, then the insurance contents become more accurate and appropriate, but the information processing complexity and time required increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a universal evaluation framework that can handle multiple types of robots, work environments, and tasks within a single integrated system. The same basic evaluation structure (robot attributes + environment + work content) applies across all scenarios, allowing the system to maintain high adaptability while avoiding the complexity of separate specialized processes for each case type

AI summary
An information processing apparatus configured to determine insurance contents that target damage that could possibly occur during work that is executed by a robot, wherein the information processing system acquires attribute information relating to the robot; acquires work information including information relating to at least one of an environment in which the work will be executed, and work contents for the robot; and determines the insurance contents based on at least one of the work information and the robot attribute information.
