  • Chinese robotics company, Logon Technology, unveiled the RT-G autonomous spherical robot in a release, saying it was a "technological breakthrough" designed to assist and even replace humans in dangerous environments. The spherical robots are capable of operating both on land and water.

The article from Fox News discusses a new development in Chinese law enforcement technology, where a spherical robot, dubbed the "death star robot cop," has been introduced in the city of Handan, Hebei Province. This robot, which resembles a large, floating orb, is equipped with advanced AI and facial recognition capabilities to monitor and track criminal activities. It can navigate through urban environments, identify suspects by comparing faces to a database of known criminals, and even issue warnings or alerts to nearby police officers. The robot is part of China's broader push towards integrating AI into public security, aiming to enhance surveillance and efficiency in policing. However, this deployment also raises concerns about privacy and the potential for misuse of such technology.
