Spot’s main task is to prevent vandalism and graffiti on train carriages, which is becoming an increasingly pressing issue for urban railways.

Equipped with modern sensors and cameras, the robot can promptly respond to any situation, avoiding collisions with people and obstacles in its path.

Security Robotics’ robot dog technology, developed by experts in artificial intelligence (AI) software and robotics, promises not only to reduce vandalism costs but also to enhance overall safety and efficiency of urban railways.
