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.
