The "world's first operational Robocop" has been unveiled in Dubai as part of the emirate's planned robot police force.

 

世界首个机器人警察在迪拜投入使用，这是阿联酋规划的机器人警察部队的一员。
 

 

Robocop started work on Sunday and is already making a name for itself.

 

At 5ft 5in tall and weighing 100kg, it can speak six languages and is designed to read facial expressions.

 

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.

 

The robot police officer has the ability to scan faces from 20 metres away and bears a touchscreen on its chest which members of the public can use to report crimes.

 

He can chat and interact, respond to public queries¹, shake hands and offer a military salute².

 

Multi-lingual crime-fighting robots will make up a quarter of the city's police force by 2030, according to officials.
