Badger Technologies deploys security robot at National Veterans Memorial and Museum.

Badger Technologies announced that its PatrolBot autonomous robot is on duty augmenting security efforts at the National Veterans Memorial and Museum.

A pilot program is underway at the Columbus, Ohio-based site where the robot will assist the museum’s around-the-clock security team in safeguarding exhibits while protecting visitors and staff. The robot also will participate in the museum’s Veterans Day celebration, which includes attendance by a roster of dignitaries and an educational robotics seminar for guests and students.

The robot also builds on a military tradition of leveraging leading-edge technologies to continuously improve operations. Already a familiar site in grocery shops around the country—where Badger robots assist with on-shelf inventory as well as patrol for hazards and debris—PatrolBot will verify that the museum’s floors are safe for visitors and staff during the second phase of the pilot.
