Bioengineers have developed a laboratory robot that can successfully locate tiny pieces of metal within flesh and guide a needle to its exact location --- all without the need for human assistance.
A leading academic has called for an international debate on the ethics of using autonomous robots for war.
The Royal Academy of Engineering says the rise of autonomous, robotic technology raises legal and ethical issues.
Autonomous robot finds and responds to chemical spills, potentially saving human lives.
