HoverCop
Los Angeles wants to test flying robotic Imperial Probe Droids as a way to patrol the vast city.
Some people might freak out over the idea of flying surveillance robots. Me, I'm spooked by the idea of robotic cops whether winged or earthbound. Policing takes a human touch. Even Robocop was a man inside a machine. Well, at least they'll still need people to steer this thing. And it won't be armed.
