SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): Police patrol robots will be progressively deployed across Singapore, after more than five years of trials and smaller-scale roll-outs confirmed their viability.

These robots, each about 1.7m tall, can be used to enforce a cordon or warn bystanders during an incident before other police resources arrive at the scene.
