Moralizing Radio Frequency (RF) Photography Using Techno-Moral Scenarios

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionAcademicpeer-review

Abstract

Emerging technologies may lead to surprising social and ethical implications. In this paper we propose using techno-moral scenarios as a method for non- ethicists to consider the possible ethical concerns that may occur due to new scientific developments. In this case, we use the capability to 'photograph' the environment using radio frequency waves and their corresponding receivers to illustrate how envisioning possible outcomes may reveal ethical boundaries. Applying techno-moral scenarios early in the scientific process may assist in constructing new technologies in an ethically positive manner.
