Where a patrol robot fits, and where it does not

The S5 suits managed outdoor sites with repeatable routes, a defined response procedure, and power and signal along the way. It is not a public-road vehicle and it does not respond to incidents itself: your guards or response partner do. These are the settings we assess most often.

How we assess your site

  1. 1

    Define

    Agree coverage areas, patrol hours and response priorities with your security lead.

  2. 2

    Assess

    Walk the routes: gradients, surfaces, people and vehicle traffic, network coverage and a place to charge.

  3. 3

    Demonstrate

    Configure the selected functions and test the scenarios that matter on your site.

  4. 4

    Refine

    Review which alerts were useful, where operators stepped in and how often rounds completed.
