  They don’t need something mobile. They can stick 1000 cameras up for the cost of one of these and have less up keep.

    I was thinking the same thing. For surveillance, can’t they just use the iconic Camera on Wall. Or if they want to get really advanced with the surrounding premises: Camera on Pole.

      Camera on pole can’t “remove” problems as quickly

        You don’t need a robot dog to have a gun. If you really wanted to have a wall mounted camera with a gun on it, it would be just as easy.

        I don’t think these can either, they don’t list attack or defensive capabilities on the feature list that I saw, I assume this is just an over glorified video camera that can follow the intruder around.

    And use AI to actually monitor the thousand cameras. Ask me how I know.

  They’re getting all these dystopian nightmare ideas from video games and scifi. People have proven you can sneak past these things inside of a cardboard box.

  They are BEGGING for some metal gear carnage.

    I wonder how many robot duds will be stolen per year? Lots of neat parts in them if you know some electronics.

      Someone will be posting about a factory reset button within a year.

  If your datacenter is mobile, you’ve really fucked up!
