LSEP is an open protocol that standardizes how robots communicate intent, awareness, and safety state to humans — through light, sound, and motion. Physics-based. EU AI Act ready. No demographic profiling.

The Problem340,000 humanoid robots will enter human spaces by 2030. The EU AI Act (Art. 50) demands transparent communication. ISO 13482 requires safety signaling. Yet no standard exists for how a robot tells a human: "I see you. I'm slowing down. You're safe."LSEP fills that gap. 9 states. 3 modalities. 1 open protocol.

Who It's ForSystem Architects — Drop-in compliance layer. Import the JSON signal definition, map it to your light ring or speaker array, deploy. 74+ automated edge-case tests included.Safety Officers — The first pre-certified communication standard for robot deployments. Audit-ready documentation. Every state transition is traceable.Regulators & Insurers — The protocol the EU AI Act implies but doesn't define. LSEP gives you a measurable benchmark for "did the robot communicate properly?"
Regulatory AlignmentEU AI Act Art. 50 — ISO 13482 — EU Machinery Regulation 2023/1230LSEP is designed from the ground up to meet the transparency and safety communication requirements that these regulations demand but no existing standard fulfills.
LSEP is an initiative of the Experience Design Institute, Switzerland. Founded by Nemanja Galic.GitHub · Medium · Reddit · arXivContact: [email protected]Making the silence between humans and machines audible.
