Eldorado 55,410 #1 Posted November 22, 2020 United States’ Tyndall Air Force Base is integrating robot dogs from Ghost Robotics for security and surveillance of the base. The base, which is located 12 miles east of Panama City, Florida, is the home to the 325th Security Forces Squadron and is the first base to use the technology for enhanced security patrolling. Air Force will test capabilities of robots at Tyndall base, results of which can influence the decision for a wider implementation of robot dogs across other bases. Although the 100-pound robot dogs can be controlled with a remote, they will operate autonomously around the base for security and have the ability to turn themselves right side up if they are knocked over.

ercbreeze 25 #6 Posted November 24, 2020 Don't look like they bite . . . lol And they run very slow . . . So, I guess they are only good for surveillance? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
