LLM-Guided Safety Agent for Edge Robotics with an ISO-Compliant Perception-Compute-Control Architecture

摘要

Ensuring functional safety in human-robot interaction is challenging because AI perception is inherently probabilistic, whereas industrial standards require deterministic behavior. We present an LLM-guided safety agent for edge robotics, built on an ISO-compliant low-latency perception-compute-control architecture. Our method translates natural-language safety regulations into executable predicates and deploys them through a redundant heterogeneous edge runtime. For fault-tolerant closed-loop execution under edge constraints, we adopt a symmetric dual-modular redundancy design with parallel independent execution for low-latency perception, computation, and control. We prototype the system on a dual-RK3588 platform and evaluate it in representative human-robot interaction scenarios. The results demonstrate a practical edge implementation path toward ISO 13849 Category 3 and PL d using cost-effective hardware, supporting practical deployment of safety-critical embodied AI.
