The integration of cyber-physical robotic systems in healthcare settings is accelerating. The panel aims at having an open discussion on the ethical, legal and societal implications of the growing use of robots and artificial intelligence technologies in sensitive contexts such as healthcare. Typical examples of such systems include surgery robots, assistants, therapeutic and rehabilitation robots, and even sex robots for healthcare purposes. Different robot embodiments may challenge different types of privacy, e.g. exoskeletons might challenge bodily privacy whereas assistant robots may challenge behavioral privacy. Moreover, as these technological developments may raise other different types of issues, ranging from the autonomy suppression or human-human interaction decrease, there may be a need for (some forms of) regulation. The panel will explore new privacy, autonomy and dignity concerns concerning the use of robot and artificial intelligence technologies in healthcare applications and will explore potential solutions.

The growing use of emotions in human-robot interaction for therapeutic and commercial purposes.
Policy issues regarding privacy trade offs in the integration of robotics in healthcare.
Legal implications of the use of cloud services in robotics and Robot-as-a-Service.
