Robotics affects society and society affects robotics.
Often systemic issues existing in society seep into our robotic designs.
Issues like racist and sexist data biases are included in our design through data of the society.
While design of robotics is often inaccessible to everyone alike: rich, poor, handicapped.
The framework AIA is a simple acryonym to make a positive/neutral robotic design.

AIA

Awarness Identification Action

we first become aware of issues at hand.

Identify the issues if any in our own designs

Propose/take systemic engineering design actions to prevent those systemic issues

We are roboticist, social scientist, philosopher, designer and humanitarians, working together to provide workable examples and solutions towards a more equal and just world!
