First we must look at what a robot is and from a definition given by a leading United States robotics research institute, where they defined a robot as a multifunctional, reprogrammable manipulator that has been made and is designed to actuate the movement of tools, materials, specialized devices and parts through variable motions that are programmed in order for the performance of different tasks as required by man (Robot Institute of America, 1979). The term robot was first used by Karel Capek…

Some of them were even once called rustbelt, “areas that were former industrial citadels that had been hit hard by offshoring, suffered decline” (book). However, right now they were given a new name as “brainbelts”, the “centers of innovation and smart manufacturing” (book), which are also the hope for future business. All of the brainbelts have the following characteristics: “facing complex,…
1.0 Introduction As robots get smarter and more widespread, independent cars are bound to end up making life-or-death decisions in unpredictable places, thus taking over or at least seeming to assume moral authority. Weapons systems currently have human operators “in the loop”, simply as they get more advanced, it will be possible to shift to “on the loop” operation, with machines carrying out orders autonomously. As that occurs, they will be faced with ethical dilemmas. Should a drone fire on a…
