replicate animals, or, more
importantly, human beings, in appearance and behavior? What could

be the consequences of human augmentation by means of robotic devices? These last two questions raise
debates on human identity. Another
question pertains to the status of robots, especially whether they should be
classified as akin to living beings, in
human society.
In addition to these questions, there
are many others related to legal aspects,
such as the accountability and responsibility of robots, privacy, and intimacy of
humans interacting with them.
It is our responsibility as researchers, engineers, and practitioners to address these questions individually and
as a community and to provide an-

swers. Our Society also has its share of
this responsibility. This is why a new
Standing Committee on Ethics of Robotics and Automation Research and
Practice has been introduced in the latest revision of our bylaws and voted by
the Administrative Committee in May
2015, to organize reflections and to
contribute opinions and recommendations on this major issue.
By doing this, we will be advancing
technology for the benefit of humanity.

ROBOTIC END - EFFECTORS

Measure all six components of
force and torque in a compact,
rugged sensor.
Interface Structure-high-strength
alloy provides IP60, IP65, and IP68
environmental protection as needed
Low-noise Electronics-interfaces for
Ethernet, PCI, USB, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET,
CAN, EtherCAT, Wireless, and more
Sensing Beams and Flexures-designed
for high stiffness and overload protection

The F/T Sensor outperforms traditional load cells, instantly providing
all loading data in every axis. Engineered for high overload protection
and low noise, it's the ultimate force/torque sensor. Only from ATI.
