Humanoide Roboter verbreiten sich in vielen Bereichen des täglichen Lebens. Doch welche Funktionen übernehmen sie dabei im Einzelnen? Was können sie für uns leisten und wie können sie speziell das Lehren und Lernen in einer digitalen Welt sinnvoll unterstützen? Der deutsche Digital-Pionier Prof. Dr. Jürgen Handke, Leiter der Projekte H.E.A.R.T. und RoboPraX, zeigt in seinem einführenden Buch, wie humanoide Roboter gewinnbringend eingesetzt werden können, und diskutiert die verschiedenen Möglichkeiten der Nutzung durch uns Menschen: von einfachen Showcase-Anwendungen über den Einsatz als Partner in verschiedenen Lebensbereichen, speziell in der Bildung, bis hin zur Nutzung als Werkzeug zur Erlangung und Festigung digitaler Kompetenzen.

"Japan is arguably the first postindustrial society to embrace the prospect of human-robot coexistence. Over the past decade, Japanese humanoid robots designed for use in homes, hospitals, offices, and schools have become celebrated in the mass media and social media throughout the world. In Robo sapiens japanicus, Jennifer Robertson casts a critical eye on press releases and public relations videos that misrepresent actual robots as being as versatile and agile as their science fiction counterparts. An ethnography and sociocultural history of governmental and academic discourses of human-robot relations in Japan, this book explores how actual robots--humanoids, androids, animaloids--are "imagineered" in ways that reinforce the conventional sex/gender system and political-economic status quo. In addition, Robertson interrogates the notion of human exceptionalism as she considers whether "civil rights" should be granted to robots. Similarly, she juxtaposes how robots and robotic exoskeletons reinforce a conception of the "normal" body with a deconstruction of the much-invoked Theory of the Uncanny Valley"--Provided by publisher.

In 'Artificial Intelligence: Robot Law, Policy and Ethics', Nathalie Rébé discusses the legal and contemporary issues in relation to creating conscious robots. She argues that AI?s physical and decision-making capacities to act on its own means having to grant it a juridical personality.0The advancement in new technologies forces us to reconsider the role Artificial Intelligence (AI) will have in our society. Sectors such as education, transportation, jobs, sex, business, the military, medical and security will be particularly affected by the development of AI.0This work provides an analysis of cases and existing regulatory tools, which could be used by lawyers in future trials. Rébé also offers a new comprehensive framework to regulate Strong AI so that ?it? can safely live among humans.0This book is a response to two questions: first, should we ban or prohibit AI; and, secondly, if not, what should be the salient features of a legal or regulatory framework for AI?

This book discusses the emergence of humanlike robots into our everyday world. It covers the trends, possibilities, and concerns we will all feel with their emergence. Robots will walk, talk, and look ever more like people, and with the speed at which new technologies develop, this may happen very soon. Robots will be in homes, in space, in workplaces, in hospitals--everywhere. Their capabilities will soon surpass what has been usually considered science fiction. In what directions will the technology be taking us, and how will the presence of these robots challenge our identity? This book explores the fascinating implications of robot technology while alerting of its possibly disturbing flipside.

"This book provides a forum for the cybernetics field in critical emerging technologies, including research into design, engineering, and technological aspects of cyborg creation and existence alongside humankind for issues in their potential acceptance, participation, policy, governance, and requisite socialization between individualization and corporate, global, networked, mechanized human and humanized machine experiences"--

"This book describes the technologies that enable real-world robots and drones to be effective killers, including an overview of how artificial intelligence and nanotechnology relate to the topic. It also examines social controversies swirling around the design and use of killer robots"--
