America Proposes Humanoid Robots for Border Patrols

The American company 'Foundation' has proposed deploying humanoid robots, dubbed 'Phantom,' for patrols along the United States' southern border. Sankait Pathak, the company's general manager, revealed this in an interview with Fox News, stating that they are in discussions with various government agencies responsible for national security, including the Air Force, Navy, Army, and the Department of Homeland Security.

“

We are negotiating with almost all government agencies responsible for national security, such as the Air Force, Navy, Army (US Army), and the Department of Homeland Security.

Pathak explained that these robots are designed to autonomously navigate difficult terrains, distinguish between people and other objects, map areas, and perform general surveillance in environments where humans, drones, and cameras struggle. The company's objective is for the robots to independently carry out intelligence functions and report potential border crossing locations to security officials.

“

We continue the dialogue and have started negotiations on contracts and some offers.

While the prospect of armed robots for border security tasks in the future has not been ruled out, should the U.S. administration request it, the Department of Homeland Security has informed Fox News that no formal agreements have been reached with 'Foundation' at this time. The proposal highlights a potential technological shift in border management strategies.

“

The robots will be able to navigate independently across rugged terrain, distinguish between people and other objects, map, and conduct surveillance generally in conditions where humans, drones, and cameras find it difficult.
