As Inventors introduces to book club the 'real-life Robocop' made to
fight crime.
According to Li, the
idea was to put the R5 in places where it might not be practical to place as armed
guards or other uses. Knightscope sees the mobile robot as a security as a tool
that will also one day be used in businesses and even act as a neighborhood watch
tool. High-speed drones that can whizz through crowds and pick out criminals,
and sophisticated augmented-reality glasses for police already exist in labs,
around the world. Meanwhile, super-advanced software that can analyze millions
of pieces of data from the web to predict criminal activity is in action right
now.
One expert even claims technology is advancing at such a pace that crime
could be eradicated entirely. ‘Technology will ultimately make it impossible to
get away with crime in the western world,’ Ben Way, an entrepreneur and
robotics expert, told Book club the future is here as some of the incredible crime-fighting
technologies that could soon be patrolling our streets for statutory agencies
acting off of command.

As Real-life Robotic ops As labs are already testing the first wave
of real-life ‘RoboCops’ that blend robotics and surveillance technology.
'Robots
will make a huge difference in surveillance and tracking as well as actual
confrontation - just think about the potential for a flying autonomous stun
gun,’ says Way. Could a world patrolled by Robo Cops (Joel Kinnaman, pictured,
in RoboCop) become a reality sooner than we might think? The US government is
leading the charge and the military research unit DARPA recently held an ‘Iron
Man’ event where ‘humanoid robots’ were put through their paces, walking,
running and jumping their way through hazardous obstacle courses. In Silicon
Valley dozens of firms are developing robots that can do everything from help
police and soldiers transport weapons to drones that can carry out patrols. One
start-up, Knight scope, is developing the R5 Autonomous Data Machine , which
looks like a hybrid of R2-D2 and the robot from Lost in Space. ‘We founded Knight scope after what
happened at Sandy Hook,’ co-founder William Santana Li said.

Meanwhile, drone technology is also advancing quickly, allowing robotic
crime-fighting to take to the skies. The University of Illinois has developed
‘swarm’ drones that can be sent into riots, for instance, to keep marauders at
bay, or zip through a crowd to apprehend criminals without hitting innocent
bystanders.
The
computer that detects felonies before they happen and a camera that can sense
guilty consciences. Equipt with a ten wildest crime-fighting techniques of the future. Technological advances could soon eradicate
crime entirely, say experts. Drones
that can scan crowds and recognize criminals are in development. As mind-reading cap that senses if
someone is telling truth being tested. 'Shotspotter'
can tell police instantly when and where a gun is fired. Around the world labs are already testing the first
wave of real-life RoboCops that blend robotics and surveillance technology. As
high-tech future where crime fighting is carried out with the kind of
technology you’d expect to see in the latest RoboCop movie - in cinemas from
February 12th - is closer than you'd expect. In fact, some of it's already
in use on a street near you. CCTV cameras are set to get a lot smarter in the
future.
