GB/T 46500.1-2025Human-machine interaction of household appliances — Part 1: General requirements (English PDF)

Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents".

This document is Part 1 of GB/T 46500 "Human-Machine Interaction of Household Appliances". GB/T 46500 has already published the following parts.

---Part 1: General Requirements.

Introduction

The human-computer interaction methods of household and similar appliances are becoming increasingly diversified. Household appliances equipped with artificial intelligence technology are capable of autonomous service.

With increasingly complex human-computer interaction methods, such as functions like services and multimodal interaction, there is an urgent need for standardized follow-up and matching.

GB/T 46500 "Human-Machine Interaction of Household Appliances" is divided into several parts. This document is Part 1. Subsequent parts will be based on different user needs.

To meet the human-machine interaction requirements, more detailed and specific standards should be developed. Each part is related to Part 1, and together they constitute the human-machine interaction framework for home appliances.

GB/T 46500 "Human-computer interaction of household appliances" is proposed to consist of the following two parts.

---Part 1: General Requirements. The purpose is to standardize the general requirements for human-computer interaction in household appliances.

---Part 2: Special Requirements for Refrigerators. The purpose is to standardize the special requirements for human-machine interaction in refrigerators.
