Perspectives on Social Robots. An Arab-German Study & Conference on Potentials and Limitations

The project aims to develop perspectives on Social Robots in an Arab-German context. The contribution is two-fold: in a first step, we will conduct a quantitative study, aiming to determine technological, societal and ethical potentials and limitations in respect to using social robots, both in Germany and in various Arab countries. This will also allow us to determine the effects of factors like education, income or even cultural preferences. In a second step, we will present the findings in an international conference, discussing them with experts and the audience.
