Singapore sends Xavier the robot to help police keep streets safe under three-week trial (msn.com) Over a three-week trial period, Xavier will detect "undesirable social behaviours" including smoking in prohibited areas, illegal hawking, improperly parked bicycles, congregation of more than five people in line with existing social distancing measures, and motorised active mobility devices and motorcycles on footpaths. If one of those behaviours are detected, Xavier will trigger real-time alerts to the command and control centre, and display appropriate messages to educate the public and deter such behaviours. The trial is a joint project between HTX, National Environment Agency, Land Transport Authority (LTA), Singapore Food Agency (SFA), and Housing and Development Board. "The deployment of ground robots will help to augment our surveillance and enforcement resources," SFA East Regional Office director Lily Ling said.
