Robotic Security System Guards ISC West

MobileRobots Inc's 2nd Generation PatrolBot(TM) Robotic Security System Guards ISC West

 

LAS VEGAS, April 5 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- While Hitachi recently unveiled research leading to an autonomous security robot in a few years, American competitor MobileRobots Inc today debuts its second-generation PatrolBot, which autonomously guards the aisles of ISC West Expo in Las Vegas.

 

Prior to PatrolBot, self-guided robots followed pre-planned paths or radio beacons installed throughout buildings. MobileRobots began four years ago developing its ARCSinside(TM) robot control system that tracks PatrolBot's position, navigates obstacles and finds alternative routes if a corridor is blocked -- all without pre-planning or radios.

 

MobileRobot's first iteration PatrolBot, released last year, only provided remote surveillance.  The new second-generation robot adds automated camera zooms, snapshots, improved audio, pop-up alarms, and tools for integrators to add even more security capabilities.  Other Asian and European companies have announced plans for security robots, but only in the research phase, with finished products years away.

 

PatrolBot dealer Anthony Diodato, of Cypress Computer Systems LLC, comments, "PatrolBot technology is years ahead of its competition.  This is the only autonomous navigation robot ready to patrol, fetch, and guard, and it is available today."  Cypress Computer Systems private-labels PatrolBots, adding lock-boxes, access controls, and other accessories.

 

Diodato adds, "MobileRobots' ARCSinside(TM) robot control system enables PatrolBot to pinpoint its location on the map it created and immediately plan a route."

 

PatrolBot can detect moving objects, record security data, provide emergency access control, question intruders, detect heat and hazardous gases, and head automatically to investigate an intrusion alarm.  New behaviors under development include finding and following people, detecting open doors, and detecting theft of objects.
