The world’s first operational Robot Police “Robocop” has been unveiled in Dubai as part of the emirate’s planned robot police force.

Built to 5ft 5in tall and weighing 100kg, it can speak six languages and it’s designed to read facial expressions, the Robocop started work last weekend is already getting popular.

It was unveiled at the three-day long Gulf Information Security Expo and Conference.

The machine has a built-in tablet so people can use it to pay fines or report crimes, and can also transmit and receive messages from police headquarters.

With an aim to assist and help people in the malls or on the streets, the Robocop is the latest smart addition to the force and has been designed to help us fight crime, keep the city safe and improve happiness levels.

It can chat and interact, respond to public queries, shake hands and offer a military salute.
