The developers at Silicon valley has long been engaged in the development of robot guards. Their first Autonomous cars were more like a large trash can with wheels, but it copes with patrols of their assigned areas. Now the company has unveiled two new models of robotic sentinels. One of which is a stationary boat K1. The second novelty — Autonomous Rover K7 on four wheels.
The speed of the Rover is five kilometers per hour, but the leisurely pace allows K7 to fulfil its tasks of patrolling the area. In addition, it is equipped with a whole set of sensors and cameras through which it gathers the necessary information, and then transmits it to the operator.
Stationary boat K1 is a modern and technological rethinking familiar frameworks of metal detectors which are installed in areas with large concentrations of people. The developers report that the K1 much better job of scanning the passers-by and identifying metal objects, so it is likely that soon they will replace the usual metal detectors in hospitals, railway stations and airports.
The company Knightscope security bots losing their lease. The cost of novelties is not reported, but it is known that the purchase and maintenance of such robots cost is not much more expensive than living guards and to patrol the premises and streets, identifying potential criminals and immediately report suspicions to the Manager, they are not worse people. However, even one of their kind is enough for a potential criminal suddenly changed my mind to do something illegal. Who knows what this metal thing will do in the next second?
