Abstract
We review at first the principal concepts of system safety. Then we analyse hazards which may face a mobile robot following the three Laws of Robotics. We focus on hazard of collision with an obstacle and an appropriate robot behavior mitigating this hazard. After reviewing the principal classes of robot control architectures, we evaluate their effectiveness in obstacle avoidance.
