Now, Cobalt Robotics, who said they were the leader in the security robotics segment last year, tells us that they are repositioning. This note, based on an interview with the new CEO Ken Wolff, and the former CEO, now Executive Chairman and CSO Travis Deyle, details Cobalt's repositioning to Omni and the future of its robots for security.
