At more than 7 feet tall when fully extended and with 360 degree vision they’re formidable enough to make any would-be lawbreaker think twice.
But Robocop they are not. These are the two robots the Singapore Police Force has introduced to patrol Changi Airport following more than five years of trials. And they are just the first such robots the force plans to deploy across the Southeast Asian city-state to “augment frontline officers” in the years to come.
They stand at roughly 1.7 meters tall, but have extendable masts that take that up to 2.3 meters . They are also equipped with multiple cameras giving them 360-degree vision, enabling airport police to have “unobstructed views” for “better incident management,” it added. They are just the latest robots to be employed on civic duties in this tech-savvy nation of more than 5 million people. Earlier versions of the robots were deployed at public parades in 2018 and 2022.
