The use of autonomous security robots in San Diego is helping to reduce crime by providing an extra set of eyes and ears on the ground. The technology uses a combination of self-driving technology and artificial intelligence to provide an extra presence. The robot is capable of working 24 hours a day, seven days a week and recharges its batteries on site. The costs range from 75 cents to nine dollars an hour, significantly less than what a human security guard would cost. Danny Garcia, CEO of JDS Security Services, says the technology acts as a physical deterrent for crime. The robots also monitor for theft of catalytic converters and heat singles walking around vehicles at night.

SAN DIEGO — San Diego is among the latest cities to implement new innovative technology to reduce crime.

The autonomous security robot is helping tackle crime by using a combination of self-driving technology and artificial intelligence to provide an extra set of eyes and ears on the ground.

“It’s just here to enhance the security so that it constantly shows a presence," said Danny Garcia, CEO of JDS Security Services.

“It’s constantly monitoring the area for any anomalies that it may have," said Garcia.

“The robot is basically here to give tenants and the property a sense of security in the most innovative way," he added.

Garcia, who is also the director of operations at JDS Security Services, says the technology acts as a physical deterrent for crime.

“Another thing that they’re having issues with right now is a lot of catalytic converters are being stolen, so the robot does have the infra-red that will monitor for any heat singles walking around vehicles at night," said Garcia.

The automated security officer is capable of working 24 hours a day, seven days a week and recharges its batteries on site.

On the company’s website, it says the costs range anywhere from 75 cents to nine dollars an hour, which is significantly less than what a human security guard would cost.

The robot has 360-degree, high-definition cameras. It records audio and video and can read up to 300 license plates per minute. It's also capable of recording your phone's IP address if a crime is committed.

“This ASO as we call it, it’s much like a human being. It runs on 5 sensors, just like you and I," said Garcia.

“When a crime is committed it goes directly to our dispatch center," said Larry White, JDS Security Services.

While some people are happy to have the new technology, others are still warming up to the idea.
