Active Assisted Living (AAL)

The AAL specific functional safety requirements are:
- AAL specific Safety Integrity Level (SIL) definitions that account for different characteristics of AAL users; andhazard analysis and
- risk assessment procedure using the AAL specific SIL.

These cooperative multiple systems can be operated by AAL users, who may not be fully trained. The requirements are specified in accordance with the principles of the basic standard for functional safety, IEC 61508 and the other related standards including ISO/IEC 14762 and IEC 63044 (all parts).

IEC 63168 (all parts) provides AAL specific safety-related requirements for cooperative multiple systems that are operated together in a connected home environment.
IEC 63168 (all parts) may also be applicable to non-cooperative systems in the connected home environment that are not within the scope of other standards, regulations or laws relating to safety design.
