Robo-Mall Cop

Japanese researchers in Tokyo have devised a robotic mall cop, a two-foot-high security guard on wheels that can track down bad guys running amok on commercial property and disable them with a “Spider-Man” like web. Named the T-34, possibly after the Soviet tank of World War II, these robots weigh about 25 pounds and have a top speed of about 6 mph.
