Robocop Is Here: Singapore Deploys Robots To Detect “Undesirable Behavior” Including Groups Of “More Than Five People”
September 6th, 2021Via: ZeroHedge:
The robot(s), called Xavier, will weave its way autonomously through the crowds to detect “undesirable social behaviors” including:
Congregation of more than five people (in line with prevailing Safe Management Measures)
Smoking in prohibited areas
Illegal hawking
Improperly parked bicycles within HDB Hub
Motorized active mobility devices and motorcycles on footpaths
Upon detecting any of these terrifying activities, the robot will trigger real-time alerts to the command and control center, and display the appropriate message (depending on the scenario) to educate the public and “deter” such behaviors. The deployment of the ground robot is intended to support the work of public officers and reduce the manpower required for foot patrols.
