If a client was going to use a Segway anyways, this seems somewhat attractive. I'd be very concerned about robot vandalism and theft if the robot is allowed to patrol solo in an unsecured environment.
The robot and drone look very useful if they could automatically respond to intrusion activations on a large campus.

I'm thinking the results of this survey indicate Knightscope needs to start thinking about their approach. Better analytics, dual purpose, lower price, and lower risk represent a serious threat to Knightscope's market if they can get this thing going.

Is Milestone considering adding custom robotic controls, or would the robot be controlled thru a standard ptz interface?

They are selling an illusion. Better background music and visuals than Knightscope.
