Patrolling robot dogs keep Beijing E-town secure

In a park in the Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area, two robotic dogs performing patrol duties have captured the attention of many passersby.

These gray and white robotic canines, equipped with multi-spectral cameras and high-precision sensors, represent the latest innovation in Beijing's ongoing efforts to build a smart city.

Beijing Economic-Technological Development Area, also known as Beijing E-Town, recently announced that the area had officially upgraded its intelligent patrol system by integrating unmanned patrol cars, robotic dogs with artificial intelligence algorithms and big data analysis, to realize 24-hour full-coverage patrols throughout the area.
