The Kerala Police are planning to introduce robotics in their operations, possibly starting with traffic management. As a preliminary step, the police have initiated a collaboration with a Kochi-based start-up to develop deep-tech machines that suit the force’s requirements.

Accordingly, the police have decided to try the feasibility of using two machines developed by the nascent company, I Hub Research and Robotics Private Limited, in traffic management and emergency response. While Daksha, a mobile humanoid, can be deployed for traffic management, ‘Kavach’, an armoured shield six-wheel, all-terrain platform, is built to carry out tasks including disaster management and emergency responses, the start-up claimed.
