Ethical principles of robotics

Abstract

This Connection Science special issue, published in two parts as volume 29/2 and 29/3, addresses ethical and societal issues in robotics. In this editorial, we explain the background to the special issue and consider its position within the on-going and increasingly high-profile debate about the future impacts of advanced robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) and the ethical obligations of the community involved in robotics research and development.
