This is particularly true of artificial systems that are used in geriatric care environments. The goal of this article is to describe how one can approach the design of an elder care robot which is capable of moral decision-making and moral learning. A conceptual design for the development of such a system is provided and the steps that are necessary to implement it are described.enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessartificial moralitymachine ethicsmoral implementationassistive system in geriatric carecare robotscapabilitiesexperimental philosophyhttps://doi.org/10.14746/eip.2019.2.7
