21st century policing is here.

Dubai Police’s new cutting edge robot patrol car Dubai Police has unveiled a ‘real-life Robocop car’ with its own drone sidekick as the latest addition to the force. The all-electric security patrol, showcased at the GITEX Global 2023 exhibition in Dubai, has been developed to enhance safety in residential neighbourhoods. With a top speed of 4.3mph the new car isn’t quite KITT from Knight Rider, but boasts a number of other state-of-the-art innovations.

The robot car is small in stature but can fly high using its drone sidekick The Dubai ‘robocop’ can also record the licence plates of cars spotted on its rounds. However, automatic number plate recognition is fairly old technology – think average speed limit zones in the UK which use similar technology. Much more 21st century is the addition of an autonomous drone partner, designed to offer surveillance in remote locations the car can’t reach itself.
