At a recent thesis defense, one of the examiners mentioned that
the ISO is developing standards for rating manipulators for
end-effector tracking accuracy.  This was the first I'd heard
of it.  Since my defense is soon and the same prof is on the
board, I'd like at least to be informed.

Does anyone know anything about it?  Is it for real?  What are
the standards addressing?

Thanks....    Ken Grigg (grigg@sce.carleton.ca)
