Researchers have developed a new safety framework to address inevitable failures in service robots operating in human-shared environments. This framework quanties the probability and severity of negative interactions during failures, enabling robots to balance safety with task efficiency. To facilitate research in this area, a MuJoCo-based simulation environment called FailBench has also been created, supporting the study of robot-environment interactions under various failure conditions.
