Killer Robots - Legality and Ethicality of Autonomous Weapons (Hardcover, New Ed)
Expected to ship within 9 - 15 working days

Military robots and other, potentially autonomous robotic systems
such as unmanned combat air vehicles (UCAVs) and unmanned ground
vehicles (UGVs) could soon be introduced to the battlefield. Look
further into the future and we may see autonomous micro- and
nanorobots armed and deployed in swarms of thousands or even
millions. This growing automation of warfare may come to represent
a major discontinuity in the history of warfare: humans will first
be removed from the battlefield and may one day even be largely
excluded from the decision cycle in future high-tech and high-speed
robotic warfare. Although the current technological issues will no
doubt be overcome, the greatest obstacles to automated weapons on
the battlefield are likely to be legal and ethical concerns. Armin
Krishnan explores the technological, legal and ethical issues
connected to combat robotics, examining both the opportunities and
limitations of autonomous weapons. He also proposes solutions to
the future regulation of military robotics through international
law.
