Abstract

Safety Of The Intended Functionality (SOTIF) is defined in ISO 21448:2022 as absence of unreasonable risk due to hazards resulting from functional insufficiencies of the intended functionality or its implementation. The risk is defined as combination of the probability of occurrence of harm and the severity of that harm. Harm is typically intended as physical harm. Recent studies however have pointed out that with the increase of the automation level, mental conditions might be worsened or emerge. Hence, we state that mental harm shall be taken into consideration to avoid violating a basic human right (the right to mental health). Hence, in this abstract, we aim at proposing an extended interpretation of the notion of harm while conducting risk assessment in the SOTIF context.
