Care robots in Australia and New Zealand: developing an ethical research roadmap

EasyChair Preprint 835

5 pagesDate: March 16, 2019

Abstract

We conducted a series of semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders and experts in care robotics across Australia and New Zealand, looking at adoption drivers and impact areas of care robots. Respondents projected that robots would be used as assistive technology in care homes and hospitals,and would expand their social integration and capabilities. Concerns raised included privacy, loss of social integration, and misapplication of technology. Based on these findings, we develop a roadmap of recommendations for researchers in the area of social and care robots within an ethics of care framework.
