Robot dogs will now protect the US border
Critics of the ruling say robot dogs will worsen the already unfavorable situation on the border.
However, critics say the move would exacerbate the "anti-immigrant atmosphere" and the already unfavorable and inhumane conditions in the region.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said Tuesday it is handing over surveillance to the country's southern border with Mexico to robot dogs.
The initiative aims to help US Customs and Protection (CBP) personnel.
The department said the robot dog deployment program aims to increase the presence of CBS at borders by using technology to reduce "threats to human life."
According to Brandalong, program manager for the Directorate of Science and Technology (S&T) at Homeland Security: Can perform
Long added that the project, led by S&T, is focusing on automated ground surveillance vehicles, or what we call AGSways.
Critics initially linked the unveiling of robot dogs by a company called Ghost Robotics to one of the science fiction concepts presented on the television show Black Mirror. The worst situations are presented in these science fiction movies.
The robot company, which is working with DHS on the project, last year unveiled a robot dog with a gun on its back.
Critics of the technology have strongly criticized it, saying it is inhumane and offensive, even if the DHS believes that semi-automatic drones are the cause of the "increase in power."
The American Civil Liberties Union, a non-profit and advocacy group working for civil liberties in the United States, said the Biden administration should immediately freeze the robot dogs program.
The LO said in a tweet: "The DHS's plan to use robot dogs at the border is destructive to civil liberties. The government must respond to this plan and the Biden administration must stop our country from moving towards an anti-immigrant situation.
