Connected Car
Launched in 2013, the Mountain View, CA, public safety technology services company was the first in the world to deploy mobile, fully autonomous security robots (ASRs) in public spaces such as malls, parking lots and neighborhood parks. The Knightscope vision was to find a more effective means of deterring crime while minimizing risk to law enforcement officers. Knightscope as a leading public safety tech company rather than a robotics organization. With their audio feature, ASRs provide two-way communication. Additionally, sonar sensors provide proximity sensing that allows the robot to tell when something is physically close.
