Roboguards greet you at the school gate
Japanese school children "sign in" with their Robot guard
Quote:
An elementary school in Tokyo has hired a 3.2-foot, 66-pound yellow guard robot to protect against baddies... and more importantly, it can scan students.
Get within 13 feet of the lovable robotyke, and it'll hold out its hand to ask for retina scan and blood sample your school ID that has an imbedded IC chip. Once inspection is passed, the guard greets you by name and informs your teacher that you're on your way. Don't have an ID? Stay there while it calls a staff member.
Don't try to escape its intimidating authoritythe Japanese put cameras in their roboguards.
