Cyborg 1.0: Thai Robocop patrols streets with 360° eyes, live face-tracking power
AI Cyborg 1.0 analyzes CCTV and drone data in real time with 360° cameras linked to a command center for rapid response.
Thailand has unveiled its first AI-powered police robot, deployed during the Songkran festival in Nakhon Pathom province to boost public safety.
The Royal Thai Police (RTP) introduced the robot on April 16 via a Facebook post.
Named “Pol Col Nakhonpathom Plod Phai,” meaning “Nakhon Pathom is safe,” the robot was stationed at the Tonson Road festival venue in Muang district.
In March, China introduced humanoid robots in Shenzhen to patrol with police, interact with pedestrians, respond to voice commands, and wear high-visibility vests, drawing public attention.
Surveillance gets smarter
The robot, named “AI Police Cyborg 1.0,” made its debut during the Songkran festival in Nakhon Pathom province. Developed collaboratively by Provincial Police Region 7, Nakhon Pathom Provincial Police, and Nakhon Pathom Municipality, this Robocop-style unit is equipped with advanced surveillance and threat detection technologies.
AI Police Cyborg 1.0 uses onboard AI to immediately process and analyze data by integrating real-time data from aerial drone footage and local CCTV networks. Rapid reaction coordination is made possible by the robot’s in-built 360-degree smart cameras, which are immediately connected to the province’s Command and Control Center and backed by video analytics software, according to The Nation.
