Police in East Kazakhstan deployed robotic dogs to patrol the Nomad Álemi nomadic culture festival in the village of Kasym Kaisenov, Ulan district. The robots monitored the area, transmitted video to the police operations center, and could recognize faces. This was the first use of robotic dogs for public order at a mass event in the region.
Key Facts
- The robotic dogs were deployed at the Nomad Álemi festival in the village of Kasym Kaisenov, Ulan district, East Kazakhstan.
- The robots can autonomously patrol a designated area, conduct continuous video surveillance, perform video analytics, and recognize faces.
- Real-time information from the robots is transmitted to the police operations center, allowing officers to monitor the event.
- The robots are equipped with flashing lights and loudspeakers for voice warnings to visitors.
- Police plan to use such devices in the future on streets, in parks, shopping centers, and airports.
Deployment at Festival
Police in East Kazakhstan deployed robotic dogs for the first time at the Nomad Álemi festival in the village of Kasym Kaisenov, Ulan district. The robots patrolled the territory alongside regular police officers. The regional police department stated that the robots became part of the digital public safety system. The festival was the first mass event in East Kazakhstan where the robots were used directly for public order.
Robot Capabilities
The robotic dogs can autonomously patrol a designated area, conduct continuous video surveillance, perform video analytics, and recognize faces. Real-time information is transmitted to the police operations center, enabling officers to monitor the situation and respond faster to incidents. The robots are equipped with flashing lights and loudspeakers, through which police can transmit voice warnings to visitors. A robot on site effectively becomes a mobile observation point, moving independently while operators at the center see what it sees.
Future Use
Police stated that the robot dog is intended primarily for autonomous patrolling of places with large crowds. In the future, such devices may be used on streets, in parks, shopping and entertainment centers, and airports. The department plans to continue using robotics for public order on streets and during major mass events.
