Who wins and who loses after US bans foreign robots?
摘要
美国联邦通信委员会（FCC）以国家安全为由，禁止外国制造的机器人进入美国市场，禁令涵盖人形机器人、四足机器人及最新扫地机器人等广泛品类。该禁令基于此前发现的中国公司机器人存在网络安全漏洞，并将“外国生产的先进机器人设备”列入“涵盖清单”。但FCC无权自行更新清单，需遵循白宫召集的跨部门国家安全机构的指示。禁令对中外机器人制造商的影响尚待观察。
Humanoid robots and four-legged robots made in China fall squarely under a new ban imposed by the US Federal Communications Commission on foreign-made robots. But the sweeping prohibition covers a wide variety of robots manufactured anywhere abroad, including the newest robot vacuum cleaners.
The Trump administration's FCC justified the ban on foreign-made robots by referencing cybersecurity vulnerabilities previously discovered in robots specifically made by Chinese companies. On July 28, the federal agency added “foreign-produced advanced robotic devices” to its Covered List of technologies “deemed to pose an unacceptable risk to the national security of the US or the safety and security of US persons.”
However, the FCC cannot update the Covered List on its own initiative and is required by law to follow the direction of a “qualifying national security authority.” The agency describes the White House as having “convened an executive branch interagency body” that “included appropriate national security agencies,” which determined foreign-made robots as presenting a national security risk.
