Police in Tamil Nadu, southern India have deployed a "robot cop" in a containment area in an effort to fight coronavirus.

According to reports, the LD v5.0 is equipped with a two-way intercom, which will enable it to both announce government directives and listen to the public.
The device is also equipped with steering control for mobility, a LED display for push messages and a wireless connectivity range for about a kilometre (0.62 miles).
