First humanoid robot targeted to work alongside Home Team officers by 2028

Singapore aims to have its first humanoid robot working alongside Home Team officers in real operations by 2028. The robots could take on tasks like investigating blast scenes and handling hazardous materials. The move will keep officers safe and free them for work requiring human judgement. The Home Team Science and Technology Agency is training and testing more than 20 robots for public safety use at a new centre. Noah Kong reports.
