Police Drone

BRINC recently introduced its Lemur 2 Tactical Drone as a safer alternative to human investigation in dangerous situations.
One of the Lemur's advantages - you can hit it with a bat and the unit may still be effective even if it can't fly.

Still, there's something creepy about being hunted by a drone, even one still under human control.

I get it. Because I am 100% invested in what drones are doing for Ukraine.

But yeah. domestic use is going to be a little horrifying.

At least it can't put it's foot on your neck until you die.

But it won’t be long before it’s shooting bullets.

Seriously, I like my drones under human control. Autonomous drones with weapons is when hell opens up.

BRINC also has a "throw phone", called the Brinc Ball.

But it won’t be long before it’s shooting bullets.

Or swinging knives, like the drone that killed Ayman al-Zawahiri.

As long as they don't become self-aware you'll be fine. LOL

Or more likely lasers .. no need to re-load...
