The police robot that stops you like real agents

A robotics researcher has produced in the garage of his home (as in the old days) a police robot capable of carrying out road stop operations.

READ THIS IN:

Being stopped by a policeman in the USA may not be a pleasant experience. We have had news many times of delicate situations and then ended well, but everything does not always go smoothly.

Second Reuben Brewer, senior engineer of robotics research at SRI International's Department of Applied Technologies and Science (ATSD) and the "dad" of the police robot, a detention can even become traumatic or dangerous.

They don't seem so peregrine affirmations.

from video description: "Every year 16.915.140 vehicle drivers are stopped in traffic. 195.078 motorists report that physical force was used on them and 4.488 police officers are attacked. 89 of these motorists die and 11 of those officers die."

For this reason, to avoid such disastrous consequences, Brewer has invented a "Robocop" that cannot do or harm itself. "Our police robot will be able to go to people to protect everyone," Brewer added.

This police robot is not an autonomous android, but more an "offshoot" of the agent, who stays in the car and communicates through it via cybernetics. On the screen positioned at the height of the Robocop's "face", the agent's face is shown, who can communicate with the driver via cameras and speakers. The telescopic robotic arm can collect documents and bring them to the attention of the terminal.

On balance, if the job was just to stop a driver and issue a penalty or read documents, there is nothing this police robot couldn't do as a real cop. Funny to think it all started in Brewer's garage. It reminds me of something.

Brewer now has big plans for his cop robot.

"This police robot prototype is a work in progress that I started in my garage, and now I work at SRI International. Of course, it is only part of the solution to the problem of violence in situations like this, but I hope that one day it can save some. lives", he concludes.
