However,the adoption of cutting-edge technology in the mobility engineering industry is on the rise,presenting a distinct characteristic where ethics in regulating rapidly evolving technologybecomes crucial.Reflect on the initiation of the mechanism of engineering licensure, triggered by publicizedconstruction failures with fatalities in the late 1900’s and early 1900’s [2]. Similarly, casualtiesin traffic accidents involving autonomous vehicles call for urgent regulatory solutions in themobility engineering industry. According to the National Highway

improve things can be invaluable training todemonstrate to students that: 1. The solution(s) presented are not the only possible solutions. 2. Ethically better solutions are possible, and, can be outlined by professionals-in-training such as themselves. 3. In some cases, the ethically poorer solutions are also technically less challenging and it is kind of fun to develop the more challenging solution. The above are starkly apparent in the case of the case study involving voice assistant devices suchas Alexa and the choice to stream data back to a central location. In fact, students reach the conclusionthat not only is constantly streaming data back to a central location unnecessary to meet theapplication needs but also may be a

completes tasks like welding that could be dangerous to bystanders. Similar to the interlocked barrier guard, a fixed barrier guard will physically restrict accessto an area from all directions [11]. However, fixed guards require tools to remove. A fixed guardacts as a shield between the robot and the operators(s) or bystanders. They are a permanent part ofthe machine. For this reason, they are constructed of materials that can withstand the impacts ofprolonged usage. It is the simplest type of guard, but the least flexible. They do not allow for quickmodifications to the robotic technology and greatly limit collaboration prospects, so they arereserved for the most dangerous robotic operations. The last type of physical guard is the
