A framework to assess the military ethics of human enhancement technologies / [prepared by Kimberly Girling, Joelle Thorpe, Alain Auger]. : D68-1/167-2017E-PDF
"The science of human enhancement is developing rapidly, and offers exciting opportunities for improved military capabilities. The military advantages of enhancements like exoskeletons for improved endurance, pharmaceuticals for sharpened focus, and augmented reality goggles for instant and hands-free access to information are recognized and well documented. However, many questions raised by the use of specific enhancements remain unanswered, leading to policy gaps that hinder their assessment and subsequent implementation by the CAF. Several pervasive ethical issues of human performance enhancement technologies have been identified using our military ethics assessment framework. Identifying ethical issues early in the development phase of new potential enhancements will help policymakers develop informed policies that ensure the safe and ethical use of human enhancements by the CAF"--Summary, p. 7.
