Facial Recognition Technology: Irina Raicu's Ethics Study The US Customs and Border Patrol and TSA are evaluating the use of face recognition systems for many border crossings and airports and CBP plans to incorporate facial scanners in all US airports within the next four years.

Engineering Ethics   What are the ethical responsibilities under the circumstances of Engineer A and Engineer B?

Real Life Choices in Corporate Social Responsibility A window-and-door-manufacturing plant decided to stop outsourcing the painting of its aluminum components and install its own paint facility. The paint used for this type of metal is known as a powder-coat finish, and the application process is simply blasting the color onto the raw aluminum. The by-product of the powder finish, VOCs (volatile organic compounds), kept the large paint line filled with a constant mist of dust, and the rest of the VOCs left the room via air ducts and blowers installed in the ceiling and were released into the atmosphere. After the first year of operation, the regional Environment Protection Agency (EPA) inspector came through and told the owner he did not have proper “scrubbers,” or filters, in the air ducts and was causing harm to the environment around the plant. In fact, the plant was bordered on two sides by residential communities and on two other sides by wooded areas. The fine assessed was…

Describe two concepts for autonomous transportation and/or delivery systems that would replace manned transportation and/or delivery systems. Each capability description should be no more than one paragraph in total. There are no illustrations or figures required. These notions should be distinct (e.g., they should not be two sorts of remote cars or two types of ground transportation, such as an autonomous truck and an autonomous taxi - think about the various types of domains that are available!) and should be differentiated from one another.

Read and analyze the following article. Manila Bay Beach Nourishment Project After years of being known for its polluted waters, Manila Bay suddenly got a facelift as the government decided to take a big risk by overlaying mounds of artificial white sand (dolomite) on a part of the bay's naturally gray shoreline. This project, which is spearheaded by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), was instantly met with harsh disapproval. In September, the overlaying of the dolomite in Manila Bay beach or the beach nourishment project caught public attention, stirring curiosity and setting off waves of people flocking to the area to get a glimpse of the "white sands". Many criticized the project, throwing allegations at the DENR, calling the project a health hazard and a waste of public funds. But the DENR emphasized that the beach nourishment with the use of dolomite is a significant component of the rehabilitation aimed to protect the coastal resources in the area and…

There may be more eco-friendly materials and components than you realize in that new Ford you have been considering. The company has increased its use of renewable and recyclable materials with examples as tangible as the soy and bio-based seat cushions and seatbacks on the 2010 Ford Taurus. The Taurus is the eleventh Ford vehicle to feature earth-friendly bio-based seat cushions and seatbacks. Ford has more vehicle models with seats that use soy and other bio-based foams than any other automaker. The current Ford Mustang, F-150, Focus, Flex, Escape, Expedition and Econoline as well as Mercury Mariner, Lincoln MKS and Navigator also use the sustainable material. “We already have bio-based foam on more than 2 million vehicles and we’re looking to convert 100 per cent of our fleet to it in the future,” said Jerry Brown, Ford Chief Engineer of Seat and Restraint Engineering. “This is just one way that Ford is advancing the use of eco-friendly materials in the industry.”   For the past…

Health and Safety Crisis Project Guyana There is a growing challenge in Guyana relative to adopting a health and safety culture. The management of safety issues and priorities has been the poorest in Guyana. Some public officers are forced to work in unsafe and unhealthy conditions such as mold, bat droppings and poor ergonomics. This has activated a person’s allergy, caused some people to develop hyper airway sensitivity and musculoskeletal disorder. Further, there have been ventilation issues and no running water. Some staff complained that they often have to fetch water in buckets to use the bathroom during work hours. This has been reported to management, but nothing has been done. When it comes to safety, in most cases, no one seems to make it a priority in the public sector. Some persons complained of tripping on smooth tiles, stairs and more. There are building regulations; however, not many follow these codes. Most ministry buildings are old and wooden. As it concerns the…

Create a Causal Loop Diagram that illustrates the causal relationships within the renewable energy maintenance sector. The lack of cost-effective maintenance services leads to decreased system performance, which can result in increased maintenance costs and decreased energy production. These factors can ultimately lead to reduced profitability for the renewable energy plant owners and investors. Additionally, limited availability and inconsistent quality of services can contribute to safety risks and can negatively impact the public perception of renewable energy as a reliable and sustainable source of power. Add any other variables that may be relevant too. Thanks!
