(TÜV SÜD: Munich) -- TÜV SÜD has developed a new test mark for so-called low-risk AI systems. It’s aimed at manufacturers and operators of AI applications that aren’t subject to the strict requirements of the European AI Act but still wish to demonstrate transparency and quality in a verifiable manner. The first areas of application include AI algorithms that improve the behavior of automatic sliding doors to reduce a building’s energy consumption, and autonomous transport vehicles in intralogistics.

With EU Regulation 2024/1689 (also known as the AI Act), Europe is introducing uniform requirements for artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time based on the risk posed by the respective application. There are currently no legal testing requirements for low-risk systems. Nevertheless, there is a growing need for guidance and confidence-building measures.
