- Robots are used to take care of elderly
- Robots have the capacity to dramatically improve product quality.
- With robots, throughput speeds increase, which directly impacts production
- Social impact and ethical considerations regarding the use of robotics in medicine, for example, robotic srgery, computer-controlled prostheses.
Social Ethical Issue Advantages:
Social Ethical Issue Disadvantages:
- Effects of replacing people with robots in the workplace.
- Using robots in situation that might endanger human beings: "Ethical decisions"
- Rebilaty of robotic devices
- Robots may protect workers from some hazards, but in the meantime, their very presence can create other safety problems.
Reliability
Any defects in the system may be harmful to the patient(s).
· Digital divide
The cost of the device will be costly. Therefore not all hospitals may be able to afford it. It’s most probable that the more developed countries will have them before others.
· People and machinesPeople and machines are definitely impacts because the doctors are actually using the robots. They are controlled using joysticks.
Ethical Issues:
Developing robots which will inevitably cause employment is clearly an ethical issue that needs debate. The development and use of robots raise several similar issues, including the increased reliance that humans have on technology, and questions about the wisdom of delegating decision making processes to machines.
The development of humanoid robots, which have the general overall shape as human beings, and androids, which attempt to mimic the look of human faces and skin, raises unique ethical questions about our identities.
