NYPD unarmed robot pullover
The "robot" is simply a remote controlled iPad tripod with wheels. A tablet will be connected to the tripod allowing officers to see & communicate with drivers via a video app. Instead of approaching the driver's window, Officers would send the "robot" over using a remote control from within the squad car. Drivers can drop their license in a basket attached to tripod. Simple, lightweight, compact and cheap to manufacture. Interactions will be much safer for officers and drivers.

I just don't see how an iPad on wheels can be considered a robot, that's just something that seems ridiculous. A friend of mine, who works down at a diesel particulate filter cleaning service near me first told me about this robot. However, people should be ashamed of calling it a robot in the first place.
