163 SURVEY ON AUTONOMOUS WEAPON SYSTEMS PART 2 Thank you for participating in this survey. The survey consists of 2 steps: 1) an online questionnaire which was already send and 2) an online discussion including this second questionnaire. This questionnaire is part of step 2. We will show you a theoretical scenario, a list of values and ask you which values are important in the scenario. Next, we will discuss in the online videocall why these values are important and ask you to rank the different options. This survey is part of a Delft University of Technology scientific research project. Your decision to complete this survey is voluntary. The results of the research will be anonymized and may be presented at scientific meetings or published in scientific journals. Choosing the ‘I agree’ option on the bottom of this page indicates that you are at least 18 years of age and agree to complete this survey voluntarily.

Next, describe which values from the list you believe are relevant for the options. * The scenario is the same as in part one of the survey. Scenario An Autonomous Weapon System provides force protection for soldiers that are clearing the road from improvised explosive devices. The Autonomous Weapon System is equipped with surveillance equipment, weapons (air-to-ground missiles) and flies autonomously in the Area of Operation. It is programmed to avoid flying over a restricted operating zone and an electronic warfare threat. The Autonomous Weapon System is equipped with facial and image recognition software for people, weapons and explosives. It is programmed with different options to engage when it recognizes a threat to the soldiers that are clearing the road. The Autonomous Weapon System detects movement behind a large rock near a narrow part of the road at a distance of 300 meters of the road clearance soldiers. APPENDIX A
