A literature-based framework for interior finish performance requirement

This study proposes a literature-based performance requirements framework for interior finishes to support the operation of indoor service robots. Publications were analyzed through three stages: literature review and evidence extraction, concept integration and candidate indicator development, and linkage analysis and framework formulation. Evidence was classified into finish characteristics, robot responses, and application conditions. Similar concepts were integrated, and a logical linkage matrix connected the evidence to candidate indicators. The analysis yielded ten common concepts and six performance requirement indicators. The perception domain comprises surface reflection characteristics, signal transmission stability, visual distinctiveness, and geometric distinctiveness. The navigation domain comprises friction and traction stability and flatness and continuity. Assessment items encompass material surface properties and the geometry and condition of installed finish surfaces. Sensor configuration, lighting, observation conditions, wheel configuration, and movement conditions were identified as application conditions. The framework organizes findings from robotics research into architectural assessment items and clarifies the basis for deriving the indicators. In practice, it provides a basis for selecting interior finishes, assessing installed surfaces, and developing quantitative assessment methods. Further expert review and experiments are needed to establish measurement methods and assessment criteria.
