HUMANOID PUSH<\/h2>\n

He added that AI cannot operate in the abstract, with sensors, autonomous systems and Home Team officers needed to operationalise it.<\/p>\n

\u201cMany of these are already deployed today: ground robots, unmanned vessels, drones, automated passenger gates in our checkpoints and clearance systems,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The next step is humanoid robotics,<\/a> as the Home Team takes a major step forward in deploying such systems more widely, said Mr Shanmugam.<\/p>\n

HTX will launch the Home Team Humanoid Robotics Centre (H2RC) in September, where it will co-develop humanoid robots with partners and let officers test prototypes and create new operational concepts.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is different from commercial humanoids built for general-purpose use,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cH2RC will train humanoid robots with skills specially for Home Team operational scenarios with high risks. Examples include hazardous material response and fire safety.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his speech, Mr Shanmugam said that such capabilities cannot be built in isolation, and emphasised the need for deep partnerships with trusted governments, industry leaders and research institutions.<\/p>\n

He noted that Singapore already works with other countries on multiple fronts, such as mobile technology, cloud technology and electric vehicles.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strong international presence here today reflects a mutual understanding that the challenges we face are shared and the solutions have to be built in cooperation with trusted countries as well as organisations,\u201d said Mr Shanmugam.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
