Shopping centers, stadiums and universities may soon have a new tool to help fight crime. A California company called Knightscope says its robots can predict and prevent crime. Knightscope says the goal is to reduce crime by half in areas the robots guard. William Santana Li is the chief executive officer of Knightscope. He says these robot security guards will change the world. "Our planet has seven billion people on it. It's going to quickly get to nine billion people. The law enforcement apparatus and security apparatus that we have globally is just not going to scale."
* fight crime = 범죄와 싸우다/ predict = 예측(예견)하다/ by half = 대단히, 매우; 반을, 절반만/ security guard = 경비원, 보안 요원/ law enforcement = 법(률)의 집행/ apparatus = 기구, 장치/ scale = 크기를 변경(조정)하다
Mr. Li says his company's Autonomous Data Machines can become the eyes and ears of law enforcement. "You want it to be machines plus humans. Let the machines do the monotonous computational heavy and sometimes dangerous work and let the humans do the strategic decision-making work so it's always working in tandem." The machines are one and a half meters tall and weigh 136 kilograms. They do not carry weapons but have day and night time video cameras able to turn 360 degrees. Mr. Li says they can also sense chemical and biological weapons.
* autonomous = 자율(자주)적인/ monotonous = (지루할 정도로) 단조로운(변함없는)/ computational = 컴퓨터를 사용한/ decision-making = 의사 결정/ in tandem = 협력(제휴)하여, 동시에/ chemical and biological weapon = 생화학무기
